It was very quick and easy. I was contacted by a recruiter for the role. I had an online screening test, followed by an onsite interview.
The onsite interview had 4 rounds, and all were technical, with no HR questions etc.
The questions were algorithm-related. Sources useful for preparation include LeetCode, HackerRank, etc.
Design questions were also included in one of the rounds.
LeetCode questions should be good for preparation.
