I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Greenlight Financial Technology (Bengaluru) in Aug 2025
Interview
I interviewed for two rounds — the first was a screening round and the second was a peer coding round. I feel the interview process might have been conducted just to stay active in the market, because I was able to answer all the questions, yet I was told I wasn’t selected.
