It was a quick interview, lasting about 30 minutes, and the interviewer was nice. We went over the project in detail, and they asked for my thoughts on it. We also decided on and scheduled the internship duration together.

I talked with some people from the lab about myself (my education, what I like, etc.), the lab projects that I would find most interesting, and the internship's conditions. There were two interviewers and they were both really nice. All in all, it was a good experience.
