I reached the second round of the technical interview. Although the first round was regressive, the interviewer was good and allowed me to take my time. It included Math LR, four coding questions on DSA, Java concepts, Collections, REST APIs, and Authorization.

Overall, the first round was good.

The second round happened the following week. The interviewer was unprepared and made me wait for ten minutes even before starting. He began with System Design, DSA, Spring, and REST, and wanted written code for everything.

It seemed his intention was not to select me. His ego appeared to be hurt with every answer I provided. He was very unprofessional and not mindful of the timing. The interview was scheduled for one hour but extended to two and a half hours.
