Behavioral Technical
So there were three rounds in the interview. First I had a chat with HR, then with the manager, and finally with the senior manager. Usually the whole thing wraps up in about 2 days. The HR round is super basic, just asking about your education and stuff. The manager interview can be a little tough though, so make sure you're up to speed on the newest tech.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Can you tell me about the latest emerging technologies?

Technical Coding Behavioral
The interview process was pretty good. First, you fill out a form. Then, you write an essay to check communication skills. Next, there's a sheet with some easy aptitude questions and error-finding tasks; if you pass this, you move on. After that, there's a system round where you install node.js and display a simple program (instructions are provided). The code for the program is also given. The final rounds are with HR and the manager. Both are quite easy, but ultimately it's up to them if they really want you; minor mistakes might be overlooked.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Can you tell me about yourself, your past experience, strengths, and provide an example?
