You'll start with an online assessment, then a virtual technical round. After that, there's an HR round. Once you clear those, you'll get a call. The hiring manager will check your profile and then tell your recruiter to set up a business interview. Depending on the job, you might also have technical and/or client interviews.

Technical Coding Behavioral

So first, there was this written aptitude test. After that, they moved on to a technical questions test done on paper. From there, they started filtering candidates and then called people in for onsite interviews. The interview questions were entirely technical. Sometimes, there were two rounds of technical interviews. And then, the HR round was the final one.

Behavioral Technical

Had a good, formal interview process. Started with a recruiter call, then the hiring manager called via Zoom. Cleared two rounds, but after the third round, I was waiting for an offer and didn't hear back.
