Entrevista
Recruiter reached out for an initial phone screen and scheduled a virtual interview with the hiring manager the following day. Two minutes in to the interview, it was pretty evident that the hiring manager was completely uninterested. Her demeanor completely threw the interview off. The job description itself was pretty general in requiring 3 YOE and experience with a few specific programming languages ( all of which I met which is why I applied for the position in the first place ). After explaining my experience with the listed tools and technologies, the hiring manager quickly responded by saying that they are looking for someone with different experience than what I had. It was pretty clear we were just wasting each other's time at that point. My resume clearly summarizes my responsibilities in my prior roles, so I'm not even sure why she decided to interview me if that wasn't what she was looking for.
1 technical screening with basic resume scan and experience,
3 behavioral interviews with senior managers - this is too much, and 1 whiteboard session with staff software engineer to discuss any system design question.

First round technical, then if you're recommended there will be four more round. 1 white Board Session with system design and LLD, three are managerial round. Gave all five round interview, answered all the technical concept as well system design. Final round with one of the senior manager was such a waste of time. was very rude and asked personal question which is not align with job and very rude. Got rejected saying experience and tech expertise aligns more for senior application engineer. Waste of time, after 5 rounds of interview
