Candidate-reported interview process

So, there were 4 rounds in total. 3 were technical and 1 was an HR round. The first round was all about DSA questions, pretty standard stuff, plus they wanted to know how I approached the OA questions to make sure I did them myself. Rounds 2 and 3 were also technical, more DSA, computer fundamentals, and a deep dive into my projects. Even though R3 went really well, I got rejected without any specific reason. This was an on-campus thing.

I had 3 technical interviews and an HR interview. I only completed the first technical interview and didn't get through. The first technical interview was with the team leader and a leader software engineer. The second was with the head of the group. The third was with the VP of R&D. Finally, there was an HR interview.

The interview process was pretty good. There was an online assessment, then 3 technical interviews, and finally a 1-hour round. The OA was like LeetCode medium-hard. The recruiting team was nice and really helpful.
