Technical Coding Behavioral
It wasn't too tough. They didn't ask any leetcode questions. It was more about checking my conversation skills and my past experience and projects. There were 4 rounds in total, and one take-home test which was between the 2nd and 3rd round. The take-home test involved using unity to build a very basic project. After that, there was an interview where I had to describe my solution and make some live coded changes.

Technical Behavioral
I was put in touch with the recruiter for their graphics team, who then suggested I interview with two different graphics departments. Both of these departments had a process that started with a call with the hiring manager, then went into two technical interviews with a group of 1-3 engineers each. In these technical interviews, we'd cover a range of hypothetical situations regarding processes, debugging, and tech design, along with some technical questions specific to their departments.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
This was a 2-month interview process and I got ghosted after the final interview. HR headhunted me and was very responsive and informative initially. I went through three rounds of interviews. After the last one, HR gave me good feedback and said they'd follow up with a debrief and next steps. But I never got the debrief, even after sending two follow-up emails. So, I was ghosted after the whole 2-month thing.

Behavioral Case Technical Presentation Behavioral
I applied through a friend who works at Unity, and they got back to me about 3 weeks later. The whole process involved 6-7 interviews, with two being technical and four focusing on personal aspects. It kicked off with an HR phone call, followed by a brief Zoom meeting with the direct manager. Then, I had a case study at the office with the direct manager. After that, there was a take-home assignment to assess my analytical skills. This was followed by a presentation of my work to three employees. The next step was an in-person meeting at the office with the head of the department, and finally, an HR interview. The entire process took about a month and a half to two months, which felt pretty quick considering the number of interviews.
