The people I interacted with were really great! The interview process was smooth, and the questions weren't tricky. They mainly wanted to understand me as a person and assess if I'd be a good fit for the office environment.

After my summer internship, I was offered a full-time job a week after my internship ended, starting next year. The internship interview process was quite simple. I had one interview on campus, and then I was invited for an office visit. They were quite accommodating regarding the location I could visit, which was appreciated. The office visit involved an overnight stay: dinner, then breakfast the next morning, followed by three interviews (with a partner, a senior manager, and a senior), and then lunch before I departed. I had a point person throughout the visit who guided me and addressed general questions.
