Interview
I applied through the university. First, you will need to take an online test that is intensive and lengthy. This test covers various topics, including coding, object-oriented programming (OOP), SQL, database management systems (DBMS), computer networks (CN), reasoning, and mathematics. After the initial screening, selected candidates will proceed to one technical interview followed by an HR interview. During the interviews, the discussion typically starts with a review of your resume for about 10 to 15 minutes, followed by SQL questions and role-based questions.

Interview
Got the initial interview from on campus recruitment and got the superday offer the day after. superday was a week after, and contains 4 rounds, even one was with VP. Mostly the questions are based on Java concept like what's garbage collection? what does "volatile" keyword do?what's the difference between C++ and Java? what's the difference between Java abstract class and interface? Also contains question regarding design pattern, I get several question about singleton pattern. Just a few programming work given Java. No brain teasers, but the interview question are creative. Generally not very hard, interviewers are very nice. A very good experience.
