Coding Technical

I had a video interview with recorded questions where I had a short time to prepare and record an answer, and with both timed and untimed programming exercises. A phone interview followed the week after, and I got an offer about a month later. I didn't like the video interview because there was no feedback from an interviewer, but the phone screen was a really good experience.

Technical Coding Behavioral

First, there was a video interview that involved basic screening questions, asking me to type out my testing experience, and some timed coding challenges. Then, I had an in-person chat with a manager who mostly talked about my resume, past work, and favorite classes from back then (this was kind of spontaneous since I bumped into him at a networking event). After that, a technical phone interview happened. A few hours after the interview, they called to let me know I got the internship.
