Technical
It was a good and nice experience. Everyone should try this company for their life. It's good, it's good. The interview happened in 2 rounds and 1 hr. The first round was technical, and the second was more technical.

Technical Group Presentation Behavioral
The interview process is pretty straightforward. You need to have a good grasp of technical concepts related to data and databases. The HR round is also quite interactive. Lately, they've introduced a Group Discussion (GD) round, and for those who move forward, there are engaging activities planned.

Behavioral Technical Coding System Design Presentation
First, you submit your application and they look at your resume to see if you fit. Then, an HR person calls you to chat about your background and why you want the job. After that, you might have a phone or video technical interview with coding problems and stuff, or maybe an online test. If you do well, you go to on-site interviews (or virtual ones) which have a few parts. These will be super technical, asking about coding, system design, and your skills. They'll also ask behavioral questions to see how you work with others and handle things. You'll meet the team to make sure you fit in. Sometimes, there's a final chat with a big boss to talk about strategy and your future.
