Process

The process began with a phone screen interview, which was entirely technical and lasted for about 45 minutes to an hour.

Following that, I was called for an on-site interview consisting of 5-6 rounds.

My first interviewer did not show up on time, which delayed the entire interview process by an hour and a half.

All subsequent interviews were standard. However, the interviewers were thoroughly unprofessional. They almost seemed disinterested in conducting my interview and made faces, looking at their computer screens while hearing my answers and asking questions.

Questions

No unexpected questions, as such. I was asked a question on details of the MP3 format, which was a little difficult.
