How it went
They don't ask any out-of-the-box questions; they ask questions based on your Resume, so don't add anything that you are not confident about. Prepare the commonly asked questions and be confident about your skillset and what you speak. Interact with the interviewer to make them understand your approach and be natural. The last round was a 5-minute HR round just to verify the relocation. My verdict: Not selected Reason: I was not that confident in the 2nd Round and messed up the questions from Python.
