Technical Coding Behavioral

They told us to come for an interview the very next day after all other procedures like GD and aptitudes were completed. Since I'm from a non-CSE/IT background (ECE), I was expecting questions about my projects, like my friends got. However, I was given some coding questions, though they weren't too difficult. It really depends on the panel. My friends received questions about family, breakfast, college, hobbies, etc. I'm now waiting for the interview results.
