Coding Technical
It started with a basic recruiter chat. Then, a 60-minute Codility test with 2 questions of varying difficulty, which expires a week after you get the invite. Unfortunately, I got rejected after that. I wasn't told beforehand that Codility records you through webcam and your whole screen, which was quite off-putting. The recruiter didn't give any hints about the difficulty or topics for the Codility round, making it hard to prepare. The difficulty of the first Codility round doesn't really match the salary range, in my opinion. I've had easier questions in the first round at Google. Since I didn't practice DP, I had trouble with one question. My advice for candidates is to really grind LeetCode array and string patterns, plus some DP questions. My advice for Rithum is to provide at least some prep info, which is pretty standard nowadays, and to let candidates know about screen and webcam recording.

Coding Behavioral Technical
So recruiter reached out on LinkedIn, we had a quick call. Then I got a take home test, it had two parts: one was algorithms and the other was OOP. After they reviewed that, I interviewed with the hiring manager for cultural fit. Then there was a live coding session with an engineer. I guess I did okay, but my application is paused now because of hiring freezes in the US.
