I applied through college or university. I interviewed at PTC (Pune) in Apr 2026
Interview
I was interviewed by a specific team, and the process consisted of two technical interviewers followed by an HR round.
The interview started with a brief introduction about myself. The technical interviewers then asked questions based on my resume, focusing mainly on SQL concepts such as joins and aggregate functions. The discussion was fairly straightforward and centered around fundamental concepts and my understanding of them.
In the HR round, I was asked general questions like where I see myself in the next few years, along with basic personal questions such as my current location.
Overall, the interview process was smooth and focused on evaluating both technical knowledge and career aspirations.
