System Design Technical Coding
I had a 1-hour technical discussion with the VP, team lead, and a recruiter from an outsourcing company. They started by introducing the company, its business, and giving details about the role. After that, we worked through a small system design problem. They also asked several Golang syntax questions. The interview concluded with a couple of coding/algorithm problems.

Behavioral Presentation Other
Several rounds of interviews happened. First, a recruiter call, then a chat with the VP. After that, there were three 30-minute meetings with team members. Finally, a meeting with the CEO was scheduled. I was told this was the whole process. After the team member interviews, I was informed I needed to do a presentation to show how comfortable I am with software. A few days later, the recruiter told me they were going with someone else, which surprised me since I thought I was moving forward. I reached out to be understanding and asked for feedback, but then got no response.
