firstly hacker rank assessment, if you qualify after 10 to 15 days will get a mail for technical interview.

the technical round majorly focuses on financial concepts.
Online Exam, then initial interview with the hr, and lastly panel interview. Exam was more about on financial statements. They will immediately tell you if you pass the interview or not. The HR was nice, but sadly I didn't get the role.
