The overall experience was decent. The first-round interview was reasonable: the interviewer asked detailed questions about distributed training and went through my past project experience. However, the first round explicitly told me the coding portion would not be LeetCode-style questions, but the second round only consisted of LeetCode problems, which I had never practiced. This mismatch between expectations and the actual interview was the main issue.

It was good, but interviews were hard
Some of the interviewers didn't seem interested (didn't even turn on his video)
They asked me two leetcode hards in 40 mins which I thought was crazy
