I went through a total of three technical interview rounds followed by two management-level discussions. The technical rounds included in-depth questions on VOIP, SIP protocols, Linux system administration, Python scripting, troubleshooting scenarios, and several other related topics that tested both my problem-solving and practical implementation skills
