Positive ExperienceNo Response

Process

There was an initial HackerRank coding assessment.

Following that, I received a one-hour interview invitation.

After clearing the first interview, I was invited for two more one-hour interviews on separate days.

Finally, I received an invitation for the final interview with the manager.

All interviews were technical, except for the last one.

Although there were many interviews, they were scheduled quickly. I literally used to hear back a couple of hours after each interview.
