Technical

Got a call from HR for the first screening. After my resume was shortlisted, HR confirmed and gave me info about the next round. Then it was followed by a technical round. The interview was on Google Meet and it took about 60 minutes.

I had my first interview, which was a low-key phone screening with HR, and it was really pleasant and professional. Then I had a second interview with the Partner, which was super detailed and thorough, but still friendly and professional. Overall, I was really happy with how it went.

Technical Technical

There were three rounds in total. The first was a phone screen done by an outsourced third-party agency. The second round was a video interview with the onshore team. The third round was a face-to-face technical interview. They claim to be like the Big 4 but aren't. It's a small organization with about 30-40 developers in one hall, no canteen. Join if you want a high package and are okay working 11-12 hours.
