The Technical interviews focused on my resume and projects. I had applied for a Full Stack Role so we also had a code walkthrough of an existing code.
The behavioral interviews focused on how I would manage conflicts and were to judge if I am a team player.

Question 1
How would you handle any conflict within the team?
1 technical screening with basic resume scan and experience,
3 behavioral interviews with senior managers - this is too much, and 1 whiteboard session with staff software engineer to discuss any system design question.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Discover in Feb 2025
Interview
First round technical, then if you're recommended there will be four more round. 1 white Board Session with system design and LLD, three are managerial round. Gave all five round interview, answered all the technical concept as well system design. Final round with one of the senior manager was such a waste of time. was very rude and asked personal question which is not align with job and very rude. Got rejected saying experience and tech expertise aligns more for senior application engineer. Waste of time, after 5 rounds of interview

Okayish. They are very late to send replies. The recruiter asked my availability on a sunday morning and then scheduled the interview but after the interview follow up the recruiter did not update me with any results
