just one phone interview and no follow up, strictly behavioral questions, never heard back with any information, just left me out cold. Would have liked some more communication from them.

Question 1
When was a time you've overcome a difficult situation
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PTC (Pune) in May 2021
Interview
PTC visited our college for Intern recruitment in May 2021. First, there was a screening test of about 90 minutes in which there were 4 sections - aptitude(easy and formula-based), java(easy),c(easy to medium), SQL(moderate). After the online test candidates were shortlisted for different roles depending upon the resume submitted and score in an online test. I was shortlisted for research and development. After the test, one more final technical round lasted for about 1.5 hrs taken by 3 senior engineers. Overall interviewers were nice and friendly.
