Technical Coding Behavioral
I got the call from recruiter, then had 2 technical rounds. The first technical round covered JS, Angular, Frontend development, and problem-solving. The second round was with the VP, involving a deep discussion on many topics and 2 coding questions. I passed both. After that, salary negotiation started, and they said HR would call. I'm still waiting for that HR call. They asked for my salary receipt, which I submitted, but I haven't received a call yet.

Technical Behavioral
I got a call from an internal recruiter who asked about my experience and talked to me about a job they needed to fill. After that, I completed a skills test. Then, they scheduled an interview with two other people who screened me, and then they made me an offer. It all happened in just over a week.

Coding Technical
Overall a disappointing experience. The recruiter was good though, explained the role well and scheduled interviews quickly. The first interview was easy. The second had some coding questions. The final interview was terrible. The interviewer seemed completely uninterested, asked about my previous interviews, then gave a coding scenario without even looking at the screen, while eating and yawning. I'm sure this impacted my chances. If you don't want to hire someone, just be professional and don't waste their time with interviews.
