I applied through an employee referral. The process took four weeks. I applied through a referral, and I got a call the next day. Then the interviews were scheduled. I had a total of six rounds of interviews.

• Round 1: Problem solving and coding, 1 hour long, medium-level questions similar to LeetCode, stack and binary tree, two questions.
• Round 2: LLD, build a stock exchange system.
• Round 3: Coding and problem solving, which the team to which I am interviewing took this round, two coding questions and a couple of Java concepts questions.
• Round 4: Managerial round, everything in resume, and common managerial round questions.
• Round 5: Coding + LLD, a senior engineer from the team will ask two coding questions (medium-level questions similar to LeetCode) and one LLD question (design a lift).
• Round 6: A senior engineer from a cross team evaluates you. This round was told to be newly added. They again asked a coding question, and its complexity increases as we move forward, similar to what happens in Google interviews. The requirement starts easy, and you implement it, and then a modification is added to the requirement, and you update the solution, and it gets complex. This round was to evaluate critical thinking and problem-solving capabilities.

Coding questions, attending mock assessments in LeetCode regularly helped me with this, LLD, practising LLD questions helped me, and anything and everything about SpringBoot Java, as I interviewed for a Java backend role.
