So for the tech lead role, there were 3 interviews. They asked about my experience with the tech stack and delivery. I went through all the rounds and was told an offer would be rolled out soon. After asking a few times, I found out they hadn't gotten hiring approval from upper management before extending an offer. Then, the recruiting team went silent. When I followed up again, I learned the positions were on hold. Weeks later, a recruiter from the same team contacted me about a different opening, and the same thing happened twice! My main issue with Srijan Technologies/Material+ is if you don't have the budget, don't give false hope. If you don't know you need management approval before posting a job, you shouldn't be in recruiting. You should do your homework on the process and help the company understand it better. It's really discouraging as a candidate to go through the whole interview process, clear all rounds, wait for an offer, and then hear that approval wasn't obtained beforehand, wasting my time.

The interview started with web development basics like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. They asked about HTML tags, the CSS box model, classes, and pseudo classes. There were also Javascript DOM questions. They inquired about the difference between Inline elements, Flexbox, and Grid. The final round was with HR, where they asked about my tech stacks and my general understanding of technology trends.

So the interview process started with some aptitude questions covering topics like oops and dbms. If you passed that, you'd move on to a technical interview. In the technical interview, they asked basic c and c++ questions and even asked for some code. After clearing the technical part, there was an HR interview where they asked about things like my strengths.
