Interview
Interview with HR manager and meeting with the technical team.
For the Payments role, they ask you questions such like what is the shortest bus stop how would you find that, and then ask you to write code. Where basically you need to write the simple algorithm to limit connections to the API but still it's quite challenging when other developers are watching and analyzing what you're doing. So I'd suggest making a pair programming sessions with your programming friends, so it would not block your mind, and it would not be as blatant as it was with me.

Interview
Four rounds of interviews , apart from the initial phone screen and OA, 2 rounds were LC problems , 1 was behavioral and 1 was system design. Pleasant experience, mostly LC hard questions were asked.
Friendly process that helps you understand what they do and what you will be helping with in the company. The only issue is that sometimes it feels very stretched out.
