Technical Coding Behavioral Technical

So first there was this online aptitude test, it was more about spotting patterns and some math stuff. Then a phone screening where we talked about my resume and some basic SQL like joins and unions. After that, a live coding and behavioral part, which had questions about working in production, teamwork, more SQL queries (join, count, group by, having), and fixing a DDL query for inserting data. The last round was a data analytics one where I had to use two datasets to make graphs and analyze the info.

Technical Case Behavioral

The interview experience was pretty good overall, with most people being very friendly, except for one interviewer. The process started with a 30-minute technical screening. Then, the final round had three separate 1-hour interviews. Unfortunately, I received a rejection email from a 'Do not reply' address instead of an offer. Despite their impersonal rejection after four hours of interviews, it wasn't a bad experience overall. I'd rate EAB 2 stars!
