Coding Technical
I went through a comprehensive three-stage interview process. Initially, I had a brief meeting with my future manager and completed an online coding test. This was followed by a one-hour coding task monitored by an SDE online. In the final stage, I engaged in general discussions and completed a 15-minute online coding test with a future colleague SDE.

Behavioral Coding Coding
There were 4 interviews in total. First was an HR screening. Second was a general technical interview where they discussed my past work and I had a small HackerRank/LeetCode style live coding question. The interviewer for this one was from a different team than the one I applied for. Third was another technical interview with the team itself, which included a slightly harder live coding question. Fourth was an interview with the department lead.
