Process
It was a really tough day, and the entire loop felt like a whole excruciating day. They are extremely rigorous, and it was a very interesting experience.
Before the loop, I had to go through two preliminary one-on-one interviews. These were mostly technical, but also included a few HR-style teasers.
Before these, I had to go through a few online assessments. The last one simulated real-life scenarios around their famous LPs.
Questions
Beside the usual technical discussion, the last 30 minutes were really annoying. It involved minute-detail fact-checking with numbers about a specific assignment I had many years back.
