Technical Behavioral

The interview started with a Technical Round where they checked my problem-solving abilities, technical knowledge, and if I understood basic concepts. They asked me stuff about my projects, programming, and what I know about the field. Then there was an HR Round, which was more about seeing if I'd be a good fit personality-wise and if I could communicate well. We talked about what I like to do, what I want to achieve in my career, and if my goals matched the company’s values.
