It was a two-part interview, starting with an online video call and followed by a chat with some hiring team folks. Both parts were pretty quick and not too hard, mostly just asking about my background and what's on my resume.

Behavioral Technical Coding

So, there were 3 rounds in total. First was a 25-minute behavioral chat with HR, pretty standard stuff, easy to pass if you know how to interview. Then a 30-minute verbal technical interview with the hiring manager where I had to walk through past projects and talk about my experience with certain technologies. The last round was a 45-minute live technical session with a panel, where I had to write pseudo-code for some given scenarios.
