Process
I applied through a recruiter.
- HR round: SQL and Python screening round.
- Panel round: Around 4 to 5 interviews.
I could not qualify the screening round, which was a LeetCode medium to difficult problem. The questions were not that tough. I answered both the SQL and Python questions and still got a rejection. When I emailed back the HR, she told me that it's the way things work here and that the hiring manager usually just tells them pass or fail.
