Process

First, a Program Manager had a discussion over one hour. Later, about one week later, five rounds were scheduled on two different days. I did well in all rounds except one. The first coding round was not complex, something around string manipulation and HTML tags. The second was a System Design round. I missed a few topics, but they asked questions and made me add the missed topics. The third round was a code review, which I nailed. The fourth was a Behavioral round, and the fifth was with the Hiring Manager. This contained technical and behavioral questions.

Questions
