I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at EPAM Systems (Singapore) in Jan 2025
Interview
5 round process, which includes HR Screening, online test, technical interview, a business interview and a client interview.
Online test was MCQ foundational data science questions so it was pretty straightforward. Technical interview lasted for 2 hours which consists of resume review, theory questions and a live coding test. Aside for the long session, the technical interview was pretty average and foundational. Tested a broad range of DS topics from ML, CV and GenAi. Wasnt able to complete 2 out of the 6 coding tests but was able to progress.
Business round was a casual discussion with hiring manager. Had great feedback after the interview but didnt get a callback for the final client round.
Overall, pleasant process and all of my 4 rounds were completed in 1 month.

Question 1
- Explain how BN/LN works in NN
- How does CNN works
- What is transformer architecture
4 rounds including 1 online test. Interview was good, But the HR behavior is very bad. She rushed me to finish all rounds, i cleared all and also shared all the required documents to generate an offer. On one friday she requested me to share the documents saying she will send me offer on Monday. But then on she started giving some lame reasons with improper response and finally said position is on hold. Very unacceptable work from such a big company wasting my time and effort. Disappointed.
