1 phone round and then a full day interview. The phone round was easy and just covered the basics and the full day interview - 5 rounds included deep dive into interrupts and there usage in kernel and also included questions on operating system concepts.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1

I approach interviews spontaneously, focusing on genuine technical discussions rather than memorized answers. I share real experiences from my embedded software projects, discussing complex issues with sensor integration very naturally.
