I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at IFS (Colombo, Western) in Aug 2025
Interview
The interviewers emphasized communication and clarity of thought, not just technical skills. They seemed to prioritize soft skills and how effectively you could explain your approach. Overall, it was a balanced evaluation of both technical and interpersonal strengths.
