It was a 2 round process. First round was with HR, and the second round was with the manager. The overall difficulty was medium. The interview covered SV, OOPs, coverage, and assertions. It was a 1-hour technical interview, and the focus was on basic concepts, not complex ones. You should ask HR what to focus on.

Technical Behavioral
Had a phone call with a nice lady from Boston, then an interview with a manager which was also very nice. The third interview was supposed to be with a Junior for technical questions, but it got cancelled twice without notice. The Junior didn't show up for the interviews, and I was left alone for two of them. This felt like a red flag because it seemed like they didn't want me as a colleague, even before meeting me. I have about 7 years of experience as a software developer, and the technical interview itself was quite easy and went well.
