1. HR Interview All good, straight forward and pleasant. 2. Task and questionnaire The questionnaire was about various topics and logic questions. The task consisted of drawing a system architecture flow, a diagram for the same project, and its API endpoint messages structure. 3. Technical Interview It was sort of a tech and cultural fit interview in the form of small talk. It was dull and I got no insights about the interviewer, open position, technology stack, workflow, team, or company itself. Reaching the end of the call, the interviewer told me twice that I performed well and my application would progress to the next stage. That surprising and misleading statement was made to determine my genuine interest in the position. 4. Follow-up email on the previous step A rejection email.

It was a good interview, but the compensation is pretty low if you are outside of the US. This was the main concern. There are three interviews 1. Recruiter 2. Interview with engineer or team lead(no coding challenges) 3. CTO interview
