Coding Technical Behavioral

The process involved a coding challenge, a live coding session, and an interview with the hiring manager. The coding challenge itself was quite tough. During the live coding, the focus was on your thought process. The interview with the manager and HR served as a final alignment and face-to-face check to ensure the candidate's fit for the role, beyond just technical skills.

Confirmed questions2 questions

They'll ask technical questions, like about the Factory design pattern and OOP concepts. Then, they'll move on to ASP.NET MVC questions, such as 'view bag' and 'view data'. After that, there will be general questions, including why I'm leaving my old company and to discuss my strengths and weaknesses.
