I got reached by a recruiter, and first I had phone interview in which I was shared a Google doc and asked to implement a function there. After passing that, I had onsite interview loop ( 3 technical 1 behavioral).
2 phone screens, 4 on-sites, one team match call, 2 more on-sites only to hear a rejection. The process took 4 months. Make sure you're a patient person and don't.

Top k elements using heap but interview wanted a more efficient solution quick select algorithm.
Interviewer was based in a different office and not friendly. Didn’t provide any examples to the question asked and communication was off. However, it was a good experience and I’ll interview again in the future.
