The HCL interview process was structured and comprehensive. It consisted of three main rounds.

Round 1: Cognitive and Technical Assessment
This round evaluated problem-solving skills, technical knowledge, and logical reasoning.

Round 2: Group Discussion
Candidates participated in a group discussion on the topic "Pros and Cons of AI." This round assessed communication skills, critical thinking, and the ability to articulate viewpoints effectively.

Round 3: Interviews
This stage involved three separate interviews:

• Technical Interview: Focused on the candidate's chosen skill preference, which was visualization in this case. Questions included scenario-based Power BI implementation, "Why HCL?", "What do you know about Generative AI?", and leadership-related questions based on the resume.
• Tech HR Interview: Centered on technical skills listed in the resume and detailed discussions about projects worked on.
• HR Interview: Covered situational and general questions such as "Why HCL?", "Are you willing to relocate?", and a client-handling scenario to assess problem-solving and interpersonal skills. Other general HR questions were also asked.

The overall experience was described as fulfilling, providing valuable insights and learning opportunities.
