Process

I got the interview through an employee referral.

The first round was a phone call asking about background and project experience.

The second round was a 45-minute phone interview with technical questions.

The on-site interview took a full day and consisted of 4 rounds, each 45 minutes long. I didn't do well in the last of the four rounds.
