After an initial explo call with HM(DoE), was invited for f2f. The process was decently managed by the HR. Had 4 discussions/5 rounds
Round 1 | 1.5hrs | Principal Arch
Project deep dive / General tech questions
Round 2 | 1 hr | Senior EM
Managerial round. Discussion on Devops/QA/SRE.
Round 3 | 1.5 hrs | Code Review
Little waste of time. 10 lines code in Go, took 5 mins to review but the next interviewer was available after 1.5 hrs only.
Round 4 | HM - DoE | 45 mins
Continuation of conversation from explo call. Questions on how do you manage the team - good/bad performers. Details on the expectation from the role.
Round 5 | EM | 1 hr
Little stretch. Did not find the interviewer 100% into this. Managerial round. Questions on project/stakeholder management.
