Got 1+3 interviews after completing the OA rounds. One telephone and 3 virtual onsite interviews with 45 min each.

Telephone round went pretty well. The interviewer asked about the projects in my resume and then there was a coding question Letter Combinations of a Phone Number https://leetcode.com/problems/letter-combinations-of-a-phone-number/.

After the telphone round, there were 3 virtual onsite interviews.

In the first round there were LP questions and a coding question was asked. The question was bin packing.

given weights [1,4,5,7,8,2] and bin size 9. give the min num of bins.
First round didn't go well, I was unable to give the optimized solution.

In the second round there are LP questions and oding question, First non repeating character in a String. and a sort of desing question, where given some dependencies what data structure would you use to make sure all the multiple parent dependencies are installed before installing a child dependecy.

The third round is with Manager, where there aare LP questions for first 30 min or so and a system design question.

The question was to design a Universal Game Controller, which would connect to any console(like Xbox and PS) and be able to replicate the moves of that console's original controller.

I was unable to design it within time.

Overall the virtual onsite was not as I expected and I received a rejection within a week.
