Fast OA and behavioural questions before not hearing back. Then final round immediately after 3 months of silence and 5 days later offer came. Pretty fast and efficient, but might fall through the tracks

Two online assessments, first one was two coding questions 75 minutes leetcode Easy, although the second one had efficiency focus. The second OA was workstyle simulation and personality test.
