Behavioral Technical Coding
The interview process started with a short call with a recruiter or HR to check basic qualifications, talk about my background, and see if I was interested. They might ask about my experience, skills, and salary expectations. Then, there was an online assessment to check technical skills. After that, I had technical interviews. For technical roles, there might be coding challenges in an online test or live session. Then, a more in-depth technical interview with a team member or hiring manager, focusing on my specific skills and experience. This could involve problem-solving, coding challenges, and job-relevant technical questions.

Coding Technical
The interview took about 1 hour and 15 minutes and involved 2 programming questions, specifically on character count and sorting an array. There were also more technical questions related to Java, covering inheritance, Selenium, waits, and exceptions handling. Even though I answered about 80% of the questions correctly, the feedback was negative. The interviewer seemed unprofessional and it felt like a waste of time.
