      Entry Level Software Engineer Interview

      Feb 14, 2019
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Nueva Delhi
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at IBM (Nueva Delhi) in Dec 2017

      Interview

      The process was divided in three parts. It was a campus placement. 1. Aptitude and business communication skills test: The aptitude test level was easy to moderate. Communication skills test was new to me but you can score well if you have a good hold over English language. 2. Group discussion: They put more focus on how you speak and confidence level rather than what you speak. ( This doesn't mean you go completely off the topic and speak anything you feel like. Relevance is necessary) 3. Technical + HR interview: Interviewer assessed on practical approach and asked questions on data structures, algorithms and operating systems. You can mention your favorite subjects. He asked clear explanations of terms with practical examples. I found it to be a little challenging. Even if you don't know the solution, you must try to make an attempt at answering it. 'Never give up' attitude did land many of us jobs there.

      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at IBM

      Interview

      This was the first virtual interview I had, and the interviewer didn't ask me any questions instead he asked me to give an impromptu presentation on a project that I worked on. For the first interview it would have been nice to get a heads-up to create a presentation or be prepared to start coding a project in front of someone.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Open a text editor and start going through and coding a project you worked on.

      I interviewed at IBM

      Interview

      The first round was a behavioral interview where they asked about my background, my hobbies, and my early career plans. They asked about a project listed in one of my work experiences, but the project was related to the work of the role.
