The interview was so cold and the interviewer was very unfriendly. The question was very long for 45 min. Although I solve the main idea, it was not enough. After the time I check the solution online although it was aligning with mine but it was very long

Totally a mess. Attended a recruiter screen call and received the invitation the same day. But the next round with the hiring manager was scheduled for two weeks later (although I tried to schedule it ASAP)! The hiring manager delayed the interview by one day without any clear reason, but the recruiter insisted that there were 2 headcounts available. Even the rejection was delayed to the following week.

Started with recruiter call. First round is a programming interview mainly focused on dynamic programming. solved the question but still got rejected. I interviewed for simulation team - scenario creation.
The interview is back to back 2 rounds, including general coding questions and ML related questions. The interviewers are nice and will give enough time to prepare. Follow their guidance is important.
