The first interview was held on Zoom. The interviewer came on time and was quite courteous. The interview lasted only for about 15 minutes and there were a few questions repeating what were asked in the online test.
Two rounds of phone interviews. Each is 45 minutes in total. About 20 minutes for coding and 20 minutes for research. Wired part: no option of asking them questions. They focus a lot on coding skills. So, be well prepared for the interview.
Hackerank online assessment. Medium to hard questions. Then if you passed the online assesment, you are invited to join the live coding section, which will be around 3 rounds. I didn't pass the live coding session. The interviewer is chinese.
