Short recruiter screen. Questions focused on resume highlights, career goals, and interest in IBM. Recruiter explained the team structure and next steps clearly. Communication was professional and timely. The questions were straightforward and standard. Overall, a typical first-round experience.

1 hour online interview. Very simple questions, nothing too technical. Mostly asked about my experience and resume. They interviewed me, however clarified at the end of the interview that they didn't have any open positions and were on hiring freeze. Not sure why they chose to interview me.
