The experience was great and insightful. They started by asking about my background, education, and professional experience. Next, they explored my projects in detail, discussing challenges and solutions. Finally, they concluded with a medium-level coding challenge, which tested my problem-solving and programming skills. Overall, it was engaging and valuable.

Technical Coding System Design
HR reached out and set up my first interview with an external organization. This first stage was okay, involving a straightforward DSA algorithm question and one LLD problem. The HR didn't follow up with any feedback, so I had to call them to find out how I did. They informed me I passed and scheduled a second interview with someone from Byju's. The interviewer was nice, and the questions were good, focusing more on discussion, which I liked. Again, the HR was slow to respond about my performance, and I had to chase them for updates. They said I passed the second round too and would schedule a third. It's been over 10 days, and the third round still hasn't been set up. I learned a lot from the interviews, but it feels like the company isn't serious about hiring, wasting everyone's time.

Technical Coding System Design Behavioral
So I applied for an android developer position. The interview process was pretty good. It included three technical rounds and one HR round. The first round focused entirely on Android-specific questions. The second round covered more advanced Android topics along with Data Structures and Algorithms problems. The third round was with a technical manager, and it involved questions about architecture and other related subjects. I ended up having to decline the offer for personal reasons.
