Behavioral Coding
In total there were two rounds. The first round was a behavioral interview with a manager that covered basic questions about my experience and why I was interested in Conga. The second round was more focused on coding, and I was given two easy/medium coding questions, along with many similar behavioral questions.

Technical Behavioral
The interview was for .Net Core development and SQL. There were 4 rounds in total: 1 hiring manager, 2 technical, and a final hiring manager round (not sure why two HM rounds). HR mentioned the company hasn't done well this year and offered a lower package, which makes you wonder why an employee would join. The hiring manager was good and kept his camera on during all online video calls. The second round was technical, and the interviewer had a terrible attitude. He asked an OOPS concept question and expected a perfect answer immediately. He even questioned my coding experience, asking if I was sure I had done coding, which annoyed me. When I asked him the same question back, he told me to take my time, so I did and corrected my mistake. Another strange question was about handling one API to return 3 different responses: a string, Customer Data, and a string and Customer Data. I suggested using a generic class, but he didn't like that. He said these aren't normal practices for building web APIs and implied I should have created 3 separate APIs for separation of concerns. My advice is, if asked such questions, it's better to decline and state you're not a good fit, as these interviewers seem to think they're accomplished by asking odd questions. It's best to avoid such interviews.

It started with a recruiter call, then two 30-minute phone interviews focusing on technical aspects. After that, I had a chat with the hiring manager, also by phone. The last step was an online aptitude test. The technical interviews were okay, not super hard but also not very deep considering they were only an hour total. The recruitment process itself was a bit disorganized. I got the offer in mid-February, even though I finished the last interview in late November, and there wasn't much communication in between. They gave me about a week to decide on the offer and were pretty firm about the deadline, which felt a bit rushed.
