Process

The telephonic round was okay. Nothing was really difficult.

The onsite round experience was horrible. The first interviewer showed up 10 minutes late.

It was supposed to be 5 onsite rounds, but one of the interviewers didn't even show up. The interview questions were nothing difficult.

The team I interviewed with uses old technologies. When I asked them about their existing tech stack and what alternatives they would use given an option, it seemed like they were not aware of basic software design concepts.

It was a waste of time for me, and I found the interviewers highly unprofessional. One interviewer was continuously chatting on Slack while I was trying to explain the code. I don't think he paid any attention to my explanation.

Better to stay away from this company unless you don't have any other option.
