Presentation Technical Behavioral
So I had an HR call and an online test first. Then I spent 4 hours at their office watching technical presentations from other candidates and my own. After that, a technical interview happened. I waited 3 weeks and 2 days for the results, but got no feedback at all.

Behavioral Technical Coding System Design
The interview process kicked off with a 30-minute phone chat with the hiring manager. They wanted to hear about my past experiences and, towards the end, asked some basic technical questions to get a feel for my programming knowledge. After that, I was sent a coding challenge where I had to choose and complete one of three tasks. The final stage involved two separate hour-long video calls. The first was with the DevOps team, who mainly focused on workflow and cultural fit. The second was the technical interview, where we briefly chatted about my coding challenge, and then they really drilled down on my understanding of programming and logic.
