So, the interview had three rounds in total. It started with an online assessment, then went into two technical rounds. The second round involved discussing my resume, core Java, Spring Boot concepts, and solving a programming question that required the best time complexity. The third round focused more on my past work experience and included some more programming questions.

The interview process was pretty smooth overall. The first round was a simple aptitude test. The second was a coding challenge on HackerRank, which was also easy. The third round was a 1-on-1 session, but the interviewer didn't even bother introducing himself and seemed like he just woke up. It felt weird because the job was for an entry-level ASE position, but he kept asking senior-level questions, and didn't seem to realize it was an entry-level role until the very end.
