Coding System Design
The whole interview process took over 4 weeks. The questions were mostly about Data Structures and Systems Design. A downside was that HR kept calling for interviews during holidays, late nights, and early mornings. Even after 4-5 rounds and several follow-ups, they ghosted me. After 3 months, HR finally said there wasn't a budget for my role.

Coding Technical Behavioral
I went through 3 rounds of interviews over 3 weeks. Scheduling was a bit slow, maybe because of the holidays, and we had to reschedule a couple of times. It started with a recruiter call, then a hiring manager chat, and finally some coding challenges on Codility. The technical part covered design, architecture, and general computer science concepts.
