I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IBM (Austin, TX) in Oct 2022
Interview
This was for the X-Force RED Intern position. They use Knockri, which is a automated/AI candidate-filtering software that basically means that you have to talk about yourself like you're also a robot, since there is no actual human component involved. The software itself is fine. It's easy to use, lets you try a few practice questions, has a nice interface, etc., however if you are the type of person who gets nervous easily, or has a habit of saying "um" or "uh" a lot, you can count on the fact that the system is taking points off from your "confidence" value. At the end of it all, I had to go to the application portal to find out I had been denied after it was all said and done. It's been around 3 weeks, still haven't gotten an email from them besides the usual promotional mail they send you about other jobs that you have no interest in.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Imagine that a customer is having an issue with some software your company sells, and the customer is becoming upset about the issue. They are blaming it on the software, however you believe it to be user error. How would you handle this situation?
First round was a case interview and final round was a behavioral interview with a more senior member of the team. Each interview was 45 minutes with one member from the team.
There was only 1 round of interview. Heard from recruiter 1 month after submitted application. Interview was 1 hour and did not seem structured at all; it went over a mix of technical and behavioral topics.
First stage of CV application, followed by an in-person assessment centre, then final interview with hiring manager in person in Southbank London office. Many assessment centres were running throughout 2017 when i applied.
