First, there was an offline coding round for screening. Then, Technical round 1, which was pretty chill and the vibe was good. Technical round 2 was tougher than the first and they really dug into problem-solving and basic concepts. Lastly, an HR round.

Technical Coding Behavioral
This was the worst, man. Three rounds, and I nailed all of them. Then I talked to HR about the offer, but they wouldn't tell me details. They said the job was on hold and they'd get back to me. After chasing them for 20 days, they finally told me they'd hired someone else. Total waste of my time and effort.
