I would not recommend this company, not because I was not selected, but because they don't know what they want, as described by other interviewees on Glassdoor.

Even if you are able to complete the coding with no flaws, they call one of the interviews Object Oriented Design. It's more of system design, and they are confused between system design and Object Oriented Design. But even though if you design it properly, if you don't design it in a way they expect, they would not point in the right direction compared to other companies.

The Technical Deep Dive is like the manager would say he understands whatever you are saying, but he doesn't understand a single thing because the recruiter would say you need to improve in Technical Deep Dive.

The Team Dynamics is something that if you prepare for the textbook answers, then you would be able to clear it.

The interview process here is: if every person on the interview panel likes you personally and technically, then only they would hire you. It's not based on just the skills which one would expect.
