Entrevista
Met recruiter and handed resume during Career Fair. Few days later hiring manager contacted me and we had a 15 min chat. Then there was 3 hr Webex interview with 4 members of the team. After two weeks I was told I had been selected for an onsite interview. The onsite interview will bring all the candidates being interviewed and they will give tasks for you that you work on alone and you will be quizzed on your answers individually. Now waiting for final decision...

Onsite Interview: There were multiple 30 minute sessions
1. Defect detection- explained an algorithm and asked 3 questions based on that. Using mean-range and median-range curves find the defect
2. Case study of 3 customer process requirements: Find the no.of equipment each customer will require- They take pictures of the contest that you write and later use the pics as powerpoint slides
3. Puzzle solving - random puzzles to analyze thinking process
4. Group discussion - topic is random, we had "Red"
5. 1:1 interview
6. Quant (math): rate, time work, permutation, combination, probability,etc
All these and based on your performance they select few for another round of interviews with the executives. These were short 30 min 1:1 interviews except one product marketing manager asked me to estimate the no. of airplanes flying over continental United States at any point in time.
Fair behavioral question and ask about relevant job experience. The overall process is smooth and the interviewer is easy going. Take some time to prepare for company related questions and you should be fine.
Interview with the Hiring manager was chill but he did not really ask anything about my background nor how I would fit the role.
Instead he asked me some brain teasers, which caught me off guard a little.
