One technical. One culture fit.
Technical included command line, data structures and algos, and SQL. It was 3 hours overall, 1 hour to work on given problem and 2 hours to discuss with the interviewers.
Culture assessed a lot of the company's values such as leadership questions.
The interview process consisted of an initial HR screening, followed by a technical round covering .NET, C#, and system design basics. The interviewer asked practical scenario-based questions and a short coding task. The overall experience was smooth, professional, and the communication from the recruiter was clear throughout the process.

Interview
The hiring manager was more interested in finding out where I live than my skills. Seems like he was trying to recruit from a certain area instead of searching for the best candidate.
Chucked a tantrum when I withdrew because of it.
