Behavioral Technical Coding
The interview process started with a general call with the recruiter, where we just chatted about my experience and the role itself. Next up was a 1-hour semi-technical interview with the hiring manager. This involved going over my CV, experience, and other things related to the job. Then, I had a technical take-home test to complete. The final stage was a review of that take-home test with the hiring manager and some senior developers.

Technical Coding System Design
The interview process involved questions based on my resume, focusing on the system architecture of my current project. They also asked about algorithms like Merge sort and array manipulation (Rotate array towards right). Additionally, there were FastAPI-specific questions and inquiries about application scaling. These were all part of the initial round. The advice was to prepare based on whatever is on my resume.

This was an on-campus opportunity and consisted of 4 rounds. Round 1 was an online assessment with questions from aptitude, CS core subjects, and one easy to medium coding question based on backtracking. After the OA, I got shortlisted for an interview the next day. Round 2 was a technical interview-1 that lasted for 1-1.25 hrs. After introductions, I was asked to explain the coding question from the online assessment, which took about 30 minutes. Then I was asked to explain a project from my resume. The interviewer then asked verbal questions about linked lists and pass by reference in C++. He also asked me to inspect the browser and explain HTML tags and code in the browser console (xor of an array). After this interview, I got shortlisted for the next round. Round 3 was a technical interview-2 that lasted for 1-1.5 hrs. A senior frontend engineer conducted this interview. After introductions, he asked detailed questions about my resume and how I implemented certain functionality. He asked me to explain OOPS concepts, which I did well. Then he asked questions about the React framework, where he didn't find my answers satisfactory. Lastly, he gave me a puzzle: 8 balls, one heavier, a weighing machine usable at most twice, find the heavy ball. I tried my best to solve it using various approaches, which he found satisfactory. Final verdict: Rejected. I believe I was rejected because the internship was for a frontend role, and I didn't meet the interviewers' expectations.
