This was a while ago, but they asked questions in a very hurried manner which was a red flag for me. It turns out they hired someone internally for the role. Don't try to get people's hopes up and give them an interview if your plan was to hire internally. It's a waste of everyone's time.

I went through 2 rounds of interviews, but then they informed me that the position was no longer needed, which I found a bit odd. The people I spoke with didn't seem overly enthusiastic about the company culture.

The interview process was really simple, mostly behavioral questions and asking why you want to intern for this specific team. There were two interview rounds: one with the program associate and another with other team members. It felt very straightforward.

The interview process involved two rounds: one with HR and another with the team lead. It wasn't overly challenging. The entire process, from initial contact to hearing back, took about two to three weeks. An offer was extended approximately a week after the final interview.
