I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (Research Triangle Park, NC) in Jan 2026
Interview
Had three rounds which went well. They wanted to know about my personal experiences at other companies and liked those experiences. Cannot complain about how it went, they were very polite from the get-go.

Was given 2 Hacker Rank questions after applying on their website. 1 was a difficult programming problem and the other was an easy SQL problem. Recruiters respond within the same day so I had no issues asking them questions.
