So first they do a resume screen, and if you pass that, you'll have a coding interview where they ask 3 medium to hard questions. I did mine in Java. After that, there's a manager interview with some technical and HR questions. If you pass all of those, you get the offer.

Technical Coding

The process wasn't great. The interviewers' expectations were unclear. There was a technical round where they asked questions on DS and algo and a few JS concepts. Even after answering 90% of the questions, they rejected me. It felt like a waste of time because the interviewers seemed to expect answers from their specific point of view rather than the general correct answer.

Technical Coding

The interview process lasted for two weeks and involved three rounds. The first round focused on common Data Structures and Algorithms questions, including LeetCode easy and medium problems. The interviewer was friendly and interactive. The second round was less enjoyable, not due to difficulty, but because the interviewer seemed unsure of the questions they were asking. Despite correct answers, they insisted on their own flawed approach, suggesting a lack of understanding. My recommendation to the company is to dismiss interviewers who lack the competence to conduct interviews effectively.
