Question 1
Describe a situation you met an major obstacle to complete a project, how did you dealt with it and what steps you took for it
Online assessment with questions on java, aws, OOP - then online interview with a member from HR team. Overall was a pleasant experience, the interviewer was kind and curious. Did not get an offer.
I got a programming test through Hacker Rank including some multiple choice. Then I was given an interview about myself. Now I'm waiting to receive a technical interview from them, but it's been 3 weeks and I doubt I'll get it at this point.

I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Vanguard (Malvern, PA) in Oct 2023
Interview
After applying, they give you a coding test similar to HackerRank and LeetCode type questions. Once you pass the test, there is a phone screening with a recruiter. The recruiter I had was late to the scheduled phone interview and was pretty rude. The last part of the interview involved a panel like interview with various stakeholders.
