One screening round and four on-site rounds. The screening round was elite code hard, which I was able to get a solution for but not able to put it up, but still made it through for the on-site rounds. Again, there was another elite code medium-medium-hard, and the two system coding rounds were just discussions. The managerial round or behavioral round was pretty normal, with no real stand out questions from that.
A recruiter call, and I moved to technical screening. I was asked a medium-level coding question involving a fair bit of thinking. Overall, the interview was nice and friendly. Did not move forward
