      1. Coding round 2 On-site ( series for 5 interviews) Interviewers doesn’t know what to ask and they are more concentrated on what work they are doing currently . Hope they understand the projects inside organization are done with multiple brain storming sessions which might not be feasible for the candidate to explain in 45 mins of interview .
