During the recruiter round, we discussed my past work experiences and the projects I have completed. I highlighted key achievements, explaining the scope, impact, and challenges of each project. The recruiter asked about my technical expertise, including specific tools, programming languages, and methodologies I have used. I provided detailed examples of how I applied these skills in real-world scenarios. We also discussed how my technical background aligns with the job requirements. The conversation was comprehensive and lasted around 30 minutes, giving me the chance to showcase my strengths and fit for the role.

Question 1
What was your most difficult decision in the last year or 5 years
Coding interview was fairly normal, and for my position/experience, I was also questioned on AWS. I felt it was more geared towards understanding how you think than expecting you to solve an extremely difficult problem while nervous.
