The interview process was pretty easy, with 2 written tests, then a GD, and finally a face-to-face round where they mostly asked SQL-related questions. I had 2 interviewers for the final round, and they interviewed me for about 15 minutes. They seemed happy with my answers. When they asked if I was currently working, I said yes, as it was on my resume. After hearing this, they called another senior interviewer, discussed for about 10 minutes, and asked me to wait outside. Despite all this, they just told me they'd let me know the result, which ended up being a rejection call.
