Technical Coding Case Behavioral

We started with an online assessment, which had an easy aptitude test. Then there was a communication round, also easy. After that, a technical interview focused on DSA and SQL questions, asked in Python. This was followed by a case study round where we were given 5 real-world problems to solve. Finally, there was an HR round. All these were elimination rounds.

Coding Technical Behavioral

The interview process was pretty intense, with 4 rounds in total. First was a DSA and Leetcode medium level interview. Then came a coding round with 40 MCQs and 2 Leetcode questions (medium and hard), all in one hour, which was quite something. The third round was a fitment round focusing on tech stack knowledge, plus another Leetcode medium question. Finally, there was an HR round. Sadly, after all these rounds and a positive response indicating things went well, I was ghosted. No response after a few days. It makes you wonder about the company culture when there's this kind of behavior after so much time and effort invested.
