Behavioral Technical

First, I had a telephonic round with the manager. It was mostly about understanding the roles and responsibilities, basic company info, and the job details. Since I applied through a referral, this might be different for others. After that, I had another interview with the HOD. They asked me about my previous on-job ratings and about the tasks and people I worked with.

Confirmed questions3 questions

Behavioral Technical

We had good, smooth, and great discussions. There were technical integration questions. We had two rounds of discussions with the interviewers. The first round wasn't too technical; it focused more on my background, understanding, and knowledge. The second round was a bit more technical, based on the work I've done.

Technical Behavioral

HR called me first to talk about basic stuff, and then they set up a technical interview with a senior person. The interview was kinda rough, like the interviewer was super rude and thought he owned the place. He was really unprofessional. He even took a 10-15 minute phone call while I was just sitting there waiting. To top it off, at the end, he said I didn't deserve the salary I'd asked HR for, and then started trying to negotiate it down.
