1st round - was more hands on coding (nothing too complicated) 2nd round - was more theoretical about implementing a feature E2E (client, server, db). In my opinion this was the hardest interview. I feel that in the others I did quite well and they were not too difficult. 3rd round - was system design like interview. Very theoretical with scalability and consistency in mind. 4rd round - was hr interview, pretty straight forward.
