one interview (supposed to be with hiring manager) followed by group of 3 interviews, primarily focused on computer architecture and verification concepts. Also had some coding related to said computer architecture concepts.
The first round was a 45 min Zoom interview, talked about my experience, a resume walk-through, and asked about how to resolve the issue with a malfunctioning vending machine. Not much tecnical in the first round
