Question 1
There are three boxes of marbles, all labeled incorrectly. One box has red marbles, one box has white, and the last box has a mix. Pick one box, then correctly identify the contents of each box.
No behavioural question, just one live technical assignment on call. Asked to code something. After I was done, we discussed the work and my code. No other question was asked.
The interview process was straightforward and went well overall. It consisted of about four interview rounds, with each stage focusing on different skills, experience, and overall fit for the role. I did have a recruiter.
