The IBM interview process began with a personal introduction, covering details about family background and education. It transitioned into a deep dive into technical projects, particularly focusing on group work involving Java Swing. Questions revolved around the technical implementation, challenges faced during development, and the solutions devised to overcome them. The discussion then moved to database management concepts, including RDBMS, transactions, and a detailed explanation of ACID properties. Core OOPS principles were also explored, with a focus on concepts like polymorphism and their practical applications. Additionally, situational questions were posed to evaluate problem-solving skills and decision-making in real-world scenarios.
