Went through a behavioral interview with the hiring manager. I think they mostly asked me about stuff on my resume and about explaining stuff on it. Be prepared to go into detail about what you did and all that. I think there might've been some more interviews after that but I didn't get that far.
Their cameras off, mine was told to be on.
Both interviewers had difficulty with English, which made communication very difficult.
Started out by telling me that where I worked was not as complicated as what they worked on.
Very bizarre experience.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Wind River in Sep 2025
Interview
The interview process was smooth, well-structured, and manageable. I received the opportunity through a campus recruitment drive. The interviewers’ expectations were reasonable and aligned with the fundamental knowledge expected from a computer science undergraduate, without being overwhelming.The entire process in online.
The selection process consisted of three eliminatory rounds: Technical, Behavioral, and HR.
The Technical round primarily focused on logical thinking and problem-solving skills, with questions based on standard programming problems. As a CS student, the emphasis was on explaining the approach and logic clearly rather than advanced concepts.
The Behavioral round included a mix of programming-related questions and scenario-based questions to assess decision-making and communication skills.
The HR round mainly involved situational and response-based questions, evaluating attitude and alignment with the organization.
