I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Arcesium in Jun 2024
Interview
I was referred by a friend of mine for the Lead Engineer position. First round was online hackerrank test. Next 3 rounds were technical rounds on zoom. Then there was 1 hiring manager round on zoom followed by HR discussion. 2 days later I received the offer and I accepted it. The complete process took around 10-12 days. The completed process was communicated well by the TA manager.
