Process
The process was an OA, followed by two virtual interviews with one being behavioral. Then there were two back-to-back technical onsites. It was a mixed bag of who interviews you, as usually the ones with less experience make the interview unnecessarily difficult while the senior folks were extremely friendly and helpful.
Questions
There were LLD and LeetCode-style questions. The questions were custom and not on LeetCode.
