Great experience. Recruiters were very friendly, and the AC was fun. My interviewers were very nice and kept the vibe casual. The interview was a bit more technical than other interviews, but nothing too crazy.
3 rounds of interview - 1 with Hiring manager, 1 with HR and 1 with department head. Also, there is a test which was administered. Test has 3 sections - Verbal, Logical and Verbal
