It was three rounds of interviews besides the screening. Interview with the manager, team, and senior manager. It was casual, nothing technical from my experience, and not too difficult. The interviewers were nice and smiling and cracking jokes, it was calming.

Question 1
some of the questions were, how do you prioritize when you have multiple tasks? What are your characteristics of a good manager and other basic questions about writing requirements?
HR round and Hiring manager round -
HR round was simple asking general HR questions.
Hiring manager asked questions on my experience, internships and skill. At last 2 business case studies relatively easy.
Had an interview with a recruiter for a position I was likely overqualified for. A couple of things to beware of:
- Misleading Compensation: The salary range posted online is significantly higher than what is actually being offered. When I spoke to the recruiter, the absolute "hard cap" was actually in the middle of the advertised salary range, even for a "superstar candidate". This lacks transparency and honestly wasted both my time and the recruiters time.
- Unprofessional Advice: The recruiter offered unsolicited advice on how I should communicate my "career desires" to my current employer before looking for new employers. It felt like a major overstep.
