For the DevOps role, we have a few rounds. First, a technical round focusing on core DevOps concepts like CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Linux basics, and common DevOps tools. Then, a second technical round with hands-on tasks involving Docker, Kubernetes, scripting, and troubleshooting. Lastly, an HR round with behavioral questions to gauge teamwork, career goals, and how you deal with challenges.

Behavioral Technical
The interview process was pretty standard, starting with HR and then moving to a technical interview. Unfortunately, I never heard back after that, and even though I tried reaching out multiple times for feedback, none was provided.

Technical Coding Other
Applied through LinkedIn and had an initial chat with HR. Then, there were some technical challenges and a task involving fixing a virtual machine. I submitted all the code and scripts. However, for the VM part, I was stuck because my account lacked the necessary permissions to access, read, write files, or manage services. Consequently, I couldn't complete that part. I sent an email asking about a potential issue with the VM, but it's been three weeks with no reply.
