The process starts soon after you applied for an open position. If your application is shortlisted, you will receive call from an HR. He/She will explain about the company, open position, work culture and the process of the interview. They will ask for your convenient day and time to schedule Interview. I have asked for a week and HR kindly agreed.
On scheduled date, there will be four rounds as follows:
1. Coding/Pairing Round
2. Technical Interviews with Lead/Manager
3. Discussion with Director
4. Final Discussion with HR/Manager/Director.
In first round you will be paired with a QA or Developer and asked to solve coding problems. If you manage to clear this round, you'll face the Lead or Manager for technical Interview. The final two rounds are casual discussion about you and your expectations and compensation.
If you didn't manage to make through, HR will call and explain you why they decided to discontinue your candidature. It really helps if you take feedback in positive way and work on it to better your skills and focus on your weakness. Overall a great experience.
