Resume Shortlisting
It was a lateral hiring situation. I already had 1.5 years of experience in Research and Development with a company. I sent my resume to one of our alumni via Alma Connect (almaconnect.com). He forwarded it to Human Resources. I got a call from HR within three to four weeks for the first round. I made the cut because I did have some publications already prior to RnD Experience. You can see my list of publications on my Google Scholar account — Google Scholar. Furthermore, my skillset matched the expectations of the Research profile. You can view my skillset on my Website.
Round 1: Technical
Round 2: Technical
Round 3: Technical + Managerial
Round 4: HR
The round went for 15–20 minutes. General HR discussion and he told me about the results. Finally, I was selected. After a week or so, I was given the details of my Position, Compensation, and the Location details. I was selected for Research Associate II position in Philips Research, Bangalore. During the process, I encountered a large number of Philips employees who all gave very positive feedback about their employers. I am friends with three people who work at Philips. At the end of the day, it was a great experience for me.
