I had four grueling rounds of interview with the HR Manager, the Applications Engineering Manager, the Gujarat Sales Manager, the Country Sales Manager, and the Managing Director. It was spread over 2-3 days and two Indian cities. On the whole, it was a very enriching experience, with both fundamental and logical concepts being tested.
