Process
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks.
I went through almost all of the interviews, and got positive response from almost all of them. The last one being the panel interview where all the interviewers seemed impressed and also wished me luck for the next interview but I got a rejection email a week after that telling that the expectations of the role didn't match.
Questions
The assessment included standard DSA questions and an average design question.
