Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 3 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en IBM (Los Angeles, CA) en oct 2019
Entrevista
Got interview offer 2 weeks after applying asking to complete a HackerRank coding interview. The questions were pretty easy and I got an email from a recruiter saying that a team would get in contact with me for a follow up interview. After 2 months of silence, I emailed the recruiter about never getting an email and was told that must mean that they are no longer looking for interns.

## IBM Interview Process
The process began with initial resume shortlisting, followed by competitive **DSA and coding rounds** to test core technical concepts. After clearing those, I cleared two comprehensive interviews with the **Hiring Manager/Tech Expert** and **HR**.
Describe the interview process: The process consisted of three rounds: an initial online assessment focusing on data structures and algorithms, followed by two technical video interviews. The technical rounds were intensive, covering system design, live coding, and deep-dive questions into previous project experience and database optimization.
