Interview process was quite technical. It started out with the Lab49 recruiter herself asking a series of technical questions with 2 choices. Then came 2 phone interviews where the interviewers asked the usual multithreading concurrency framework, object oriented programming and spring questions. The 2nd phone interviewer asked me to design a class which would execute parallel tasks in a non-blocking fashion. The 3rd interview was on skype with a senior staff engineer from Lab49. This was more design oriented and the interviewer was not very patient with me and seemed to judge me from a pre-conceived bias. He barely asked me questions for 20 minutes and abruptly ended the interview although I did answer most of the questions correctly.

First Round: regular HR round talking about the company, and relevant previous experiences Second Round: 90 minutes live coding. Allowed to read docs or ask questions, but can't use AI or google the solution. Difficulty is a bit hard to judge, because the problems were the type where knowledge of specific patterns is required, and that determines whether it's hard or trivial. Style of coding and a compact and "elegant" solution were emphasized over relevant skills, or thought process. There was no followup or any feedback after the second round.
