I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Advisor360° (Bengaluru) in Sept 2025
Interview
The interview process started with an HR call with discussion the role, compensation and to schedule the technical rounds of interviews.
Overall they had 3 technical rounds:
1) Problem Solving and DSA
2) Current Project discussion and LLD
3) System Design and HLD with a small coding exercise.
4) Director round, where he asked about the current roles and responsibilities and explained about their expectations. He also asked about the current project structure and technology used. Typical director round no surprises.

Question 1
They asked about my current project and why I have chosen certain approaches over others. They also discussed about the decisions I took and why.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Advisor360° (Amherst, MA) in Apr 2024
Interview
My first interview was with HR. We spoke about my experience and different projects. The second Interview was with the team they were hiring for. It was a mix of technical and managerial.
Final interview was again with the HR.

Interview
Recruiter reached out to me for a phone interview, then met with a technical manager for discussion, and ended with a coding interview with senior developers.
I have to say I don't really find code challenges/assessments to be useful beyond entry level. I think they’re kind of insulting actually. I wouldn't have slogged through a four-year degree and years of experience if all I needed to do was a bootcamp and solve some random competitive coding problem in 25 minutes. I'd probably be working for FAANG in that case.
I did cheekily flip the interview back on them asking how the question was relevant to the job, and it was kind of funny watching them struggle to answer it to my point. Also advised me to grind more leetcode after the interview negating the fact that perhaps candidates have homes, kids, or other full-time jobs to deal with. Regardless, I just politely declined to solve it. Feels like they're missing out on people because of that third interview, but that's just my opinion.

Question 1
Leetcode-style medium (as the interviewer described it) algorithm that generates and arranges a 2-D array of prime numbers in a specific way.
