It was quite a few interviews. The first one went really well; the interviewer was great and focused on understanding my thinking process, even offering help when I stumbled. They asked a lot of questions to gauge my experience level, and each one needed a thorough answer.

Technical Behavioral

I got a phone call to check if I was still interested in an internship here. Then I had another phone interview with Python questions. After that, I went to their campus for four 30-minute interviews with four different people. Later, one of the employees asked if I wanted to talk to a higher-up, but they were busy. I was told afterwards that I didn't get the job, which was a bummer since everyone seemed to think I had a lot of potential.
