Candidate-reported interview process

I applied at my university's career fair and got an email to schedule a phone interview. After passing that, I was invited on-site for the final round. Since it was an internship, the interview focused solely on my resume, asking about academic projects and previous work.

I went through college campus interviews. The interviews were held in their company. The first round was a face-to-face interview with a senior engineer, and then another interview with the CEO.

It was a virtual interview where I talked about my past experiences and why I want to be an engineer. The engineering manager asked about my previous projects, which led to a good conversation about the company.
