Technical Coding Behavioral

So there were 3 rounds in total. First was an aptitude and technical assessment that you do on the computer. Then the second one was a technical interview face to face, where they asked about my projects, my role in those projects, my favorite programming language, and if I could solve a problem given to me and code it. They also asked some basic questions. The third round was an HR interview, also face to face. They asked about my internships and how much I knew about the company, and also what differences I saw between college and my internship.
