Interview
Medium to difficult leetcode questions. 2 leadership principles based questions in every interview. Total 4 technical interviews. Assessing code readability, verification, validation, testing and Low level design and High level design.
The interviewers were nice and patient. They are there to listen and have a casual conversation with you. The technical interviews were hard but that was to be expected. They will ask for an optimal solution and ask for time complexity.
3 rounds of online assessment - debug the code, coding based on leetcode questions and a round of behavioral questions where they give you a set of scenarios and ask what you'll do.
