5 rounds of interview:- 1. HR screening round , 2. DSA (Easy - Medium), 3. Android fundamentals + DSA 4. System Design 5. Hiring manager
Was able to crack 4 rounds, however after contacting the HR they mentioned that they had found another candidate and will be hiring him/her. Overall this whole process took 4 months because the process moves at the pace of a snail. Would not recommend anyone to go via such process.

Interview
They ask if you got a degree first. If no, do not bother. Even though you have 10+ years in software and architecting services at scale. Usually they lead with a leetcode style, or ghost you if you indicate no degree. I hear, you need special approval for non-degree holders. Backwards!!
