I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Hitachi Vantara (Hyderābād) in Nov 2021
Interview
They have outsourced Technical Interview process to Third party vendor. He will open one question paper and will try to ask them instead of checking your skillset. It may not good.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Hitachi Vantara (London, England) in Jul 2013
Interview
Great communication and planning before the interview, and they seemed very keen. They offered to skip the first interview and went straight to a technical challenge, which was relatively straight-forward if you know your stuff. Their office in a great location on the London Riverside (although the numbering system is crazy, so don't panic if you pass buildings numbers 1, 6 and 3 in that order!). The people came across as very friendly in person. Unfortunately after the interview their communication has been abysmal, with absolutely no contact afterwards.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview mainly consisted of many different "guess what I'm thinking of" or "say the magic phrase" type questions.
