Received a mail from HR two days after applying through their career website. An interviewer contacted through mail on the same day and scheduled the interview for the next week.

Question 1
Asked for any software development experience in the past?
- C programming concepts: extern, * static *, what is a null pointer, difference between structure and union, size of an integer variable

they call you and ask you the your availability and typical interview goes for 3 hours if they are interested. They ask C questions and your project related questions. At last a manager comes and takes your interview.
I had 1 screening round with 4 onsite rounds . All the rounds focuses on basic C concepts and additional concepts specific to role. Prepare behavioural questions related to your past work experience
Applied online. Recruiter reached out to schedule 2 technical interviews , 1 was about C/C++ coding , as well as fundamental coding / memory concepts. And another was a deep dive about items on my resume focusing on both technical and other aspects. Thought they went good but didn’t get the offer
