So, there were 3 rounds in total. First, they just screened the resumes. Then, I had a technical interview for about an hour, where they asked about C/C++ and OOPS concepts. The last round was a quick HR chat for 15 minutes about relocation.

I interviewed for a Corporate Applications Engineering role and it went well. I feel like I showed my technical knowledge, how I solve problems, and how I communicate. We talked about my previous projects, how I can adapt, and how I like to work with others. I'm eager to help the team succeed and use my skills in this busy company setting.
