I had a phone call with HR first, and then there was one round that was a mix of behavioral and coding questions. We talked about company practices and benefits, and also did some coding and explained the time complexity of the code I wrote.

Technical Presentation Behavioral

The onsite interview was pretty good, I had two technical interviews and a behavioral interview, each lasting 45 minutes. The interviewers were helpful. At the end of the first technical interview, there was an hour-long presentation about the company and the role.

Technical Behavioral

This was one of the worst interview experiences I've ever had. The recruiters seemed to have a poor understanding of the questions they were asking. Despite my strong qualifications for the role, my background wasn't really discussed. It would be better if the interviewers were more engaged. It was a pretty terrible experience, and I wouldn't recommend this company to friends.
