I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at AstraZeneca (Chennai)
Interview
During campus placements, the interview process deviated slightly from the standard structure. Instead of the usual Technical–Management–HR flow, the rounds were conducted as follows:
Round 1: Introductory technical discussion focused on understanding my background, project experience, and basic SQL knowledge.
Round 2: In-depth assessment of SQL fundamentals, covering core query concepts and problem-solving.
Round 3: Detailed discussion on my NLP-based project, along with questions on Python, SQL, and practical data-driven decision-making scenarios.
Final Round: HR discussion.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you find the second-highest salary from a table?
Pretty simple with 2 technical rounds and 1 HR round. The technical rounds focused on data structure and algorithms based on real life scenarios. The HR round on the other was more focused on personal questions.

During the virtual interview process, they conduct 2-3 rounds of interviews based on the candidate's profile. Additionally, I conduct 2 rounds that focus on technical skills. Some common questions asked during these rounds include "Why do you want to join our company?"
