Process
The recruiter is helpful. They will move on very fast if you pass the current round.
There are 3-4 rounds in total, with the final round being a meeting with the hiring manager. SQL is very easy, but Python seems to be a bit tough for me.
Questions
Python Leetcode Medium level questions.
I would suggest checking all questions under the TT tag.
