Candidate-reported interview process
This interview happened on campus after I went to the student career fair. It was about an hour long with three people interviewing me from different teams at the company. The questions were pretty basic, so you should definitely do your homework beforehand.
The interview experience was super relaxed and low-stress, just as they promised! The vibe was really good, and they made sure I felt comfortable talking with them.
It was a pretty standard interview process, with typical questions you'd get for an internship or Co-op. Only one interview was needed for the whole process. I received an offer about a week to a week and a half later. Communication was great throughout.
