The interview process may vary across teams.
There will be a minimum of two technical rounds, where you will mostly be given a technical challenge or a DSA problem to solve. Both rounds will have a similar format.
The third (or fourth, if there are three technical rounds) will be a manager round, and the last could be with the hiring manager or senior management.
The last two rounds will mostly involve designing or solutioning questions. They may also include questions on design patterns, SOLID principles, or other broader topics. Most likely, the last two rounds will not have technical questions.
Interviews will generally be generic, independent of your specific programming language or technology (an exception might occur if a team specifically requires a skill like React or containerization). However, the rounds will likely focus on generic skills, independent of specialized technologies.
