Candidate-reported interview process

The interviewers were really nice and responsive, making it feel like a chat. They seriously answered my questions. The second round was a small panel with two interviewers, after I had already spoken with the recruiter.

The interview was a single online session via zoom, it lasted for about 45 minutes. Two team members, not my potential direct supervisor, who would be working on the internship, conducted it. The questions were mostly about my past experience related to the internship work.

The interview process was very easy and welcoming. It was a two step process and I met with a total of 4 people. They were every helpful each step of the way and it was during COVID when everyone was still getting the hang of virtual.
