First two stages went well. Third stage (technical) not so much. I was told in the second round that the role was primarily two specific technologies, so I had prepared for them only to not be asked any questions on them.
Questions were vague and confusing. I felt like the interviewer was trying to trip me up which wasn't nice at all. One question I was provided with I would have solved using one of my prepared technologies, so when I said that I would do it that way, the interviewer told me that he didn't want me to. But then also referenced the tech several times. Very confusing.
Didn't find the interviewer very personable at all, so I'm not sure that I would have been able to build a decent relationship with them anyway. I really liked the manager of that team however, so a bit of a shame that I won't get to work with them.

Asked me a couple of tech questions with code examples, and had to code through to a solution.
I had an interview where the interviewers left too much space to allow me to ask questions and clarify but then didn't give clear direction to get the question answered. They then cut me off and said I reached no conclusion.

The second stage consists of several programming challenges (6 in total) - and 4 multiple choice questions. The questions require skills with file reading, input management and some systems level thinking, so Leetcode alone is insufficient. They warn you that some questions cannot be solved in your language of choice, but don't worry about learning a new language, those questions are more 'deciphering code' questions - you aren't really ever asked to code in a language that is not of your choosing.

One technical question asked you to scan through a set of intervals to detect overlaps. Another asked you to write code that processed a css, gracefully dealing with corrupted data.
