Process

Recruiter screening, then an onsite interview (3 rounds). The last interview is a Bar Raiser type of interview.

One behavioral interview. One DSA and system design interview. One DSA and behavioral interview (Bar Raiser - normally don't ask for DSA in this round, but they asked me because I only had one DSA round in the whole interview process).

Questions

How would you join two tables, 'books' and 'author', with no foreign ID or common columns?
