Four rounds, one behavioral, two technical with team members, one blended with engineering manager. Each lasted respectively, thirty minutes, one hour, one hour, and one and a half hours.

I passed all stages only to be then notified that they don’t have an opening yet. They generously offered me to wait until next year and see if position is open. Don’t waste people time if you can’t hire them.
