Process

There were five rounds of interviews.

Four of them were technical interviews. In each round, they asked a couple of coding questions using the C programming language. These questions were easy to medium level. After the questions, they asked in-depth about embedded systems and operating system concepts.

Each technical round lasted for about an hour.

The fifth round was with HR and was mostly behavioral questions. I received the decision within two to three days.
