Was contacted by the HR team. Had a good first screening and then I was given a case study to solve. I solved and submitted my solution. My solution was accepted. However, after going through the case study they rejected me. The technical guy who went over my case study somehow didn't like my solution even though it was a normal one. He also mentioned that a lot of people didn't even reach a solution. Even though I did, it was somehow not enough. He dug way too deep and I answered all of his questions as well as justifying my decisions. Either it was not enough or he was just having a bad day. He also had a negative attitude all along during the interview

The case study was framed as an open question. I was asked to design an end-to-end solution to automate a simple task in a city, using drones. The interviewer asked about diverse topics ranging from data storage to model architecture and benchmarking. The problem is interesting and the interviewer engaged in the conversation, making it a fun interview.

4 rounds. Tough. Cleared all. Poor cooms and no feedback between interviewers. Was interviewed by what felt like a fresh graduate in one cycle. Over promise and under deliver in clarity.
