Initial call with HR.

Then a call with the Manager.

Followed by three calls with principal engineers. The last three technical calls were with engineers that have been there for 10+ years (probably in their 50s).

Lots of questions around "what is the bash command to do X?"

For example, what is the command to see CPU usage? top.

These questions were very specific, and the asker wanted very specific answers.

Questions also arose around SQL, such as regular inner joins and left joins.

There was a coding question in Go: how to deal with an int32 overflow? What happens when int32.max + 1? How to handle that scenario?

Additionally, a question about Ansible came up. This was also very specific and lacked freedom to demonstrate broader knowledge; the asker wanted a precise answer that only they possessed.
