Interview
all remote and one interviewer never even showed up. Very different in the sense that there wasn't an office to interview. the interviewers were extremely knowledgeable and well versed in leading interveiws.
It is quite good had tech questions interestingly they suited my line of thinking that enabled me to bag the offer. Cloud was the centre of the discussion we had interestingly I had good experience in cloud that helped
