Started with a quick chat, then had 2 or 3 technical interviews. They focused on basic programming stuff. Some people wanted actual code, others were fine with just hearing the ideas on how to solve the problems.

Coding Technical

I had a call from Virsec. The first round was with the hiring manager, and the second was a coding round. I answered all the questions, which were all from LeetCode. The next day, I got an update saying I wasn't selected. I have no idea why. I suspect they might be wasting my time with interviews, as something similar happened to my friend too.

I got a call from a staffing agency. The first step was a phone screening, and I had to wait about 15 minutes for the call. They asked if I was applying for a Full-stack developer role, which I said no to. The interviewer then looked through my resume and brought up Spring Boot.
