1. Application & Screening You apply via job portals, company websites, or referrals. HR screening checks your resume for required skills, education, and experience. Sometimes includes a quick phone call to verify details and expectations (availability, salary, notice period). 2. Assessment / Skill Test Technical tests (CAD modeling, CAE simulation, coding, or aptitude). Could be written MCQs, problem-solving exercises, or hands-on tasks (e.g., designing in SolidWorks, running an Ansys simulation). Some companies use take-home assignments or online timed tests. 3. First Technical Interview Usually with a team lead or senior engineer. Focus on technical skills, projects from your resume, problem-solving approach, and real-world scenarios. May include whiteboard design problems or live software demos. 4. Second Technical / Managerial Interview Checks deeper technical knowledge, decision-making, and ability to handle complex situations. Manager assesses team fit, communication skills, and project handling ability. May also ask behavioral questions (“Tell me about a time you solved a major problem…”). 5. HR / Final Interview Discusses salary, benefits, and joining date. Confirms cultural fit and career goals. Sometimes the final decision-maker (Director/VP) joins to approve. 6. Offer & Onboarding Company sends a formal offer letter. You go through background verification (if required). Onboarding process starts.
