It's like 4 to 6 rounds total, you know, with a screening and then an interview panel which is super cool and makes you feel really comfortable. They'll really dig into your past work experience from your previous jobs and then move on to the technical stuff. They'll ask about your design skills too. And then there's an HR round. Oh, and one more round with the internal team that's going to be doing the interviews.
