Technical Behavioral
I went through 3 interview rounds total. The first was a tech round that felt pretty challenging, covering a wide range of topics from computer networks to data structures. The second tech round was a bit easier, with questions focused on my resume, projects, and extracurriculars. There was also an HR round.
