Behavioral Technical

This company is pretty inexperienced with interviews, using a staffing firm for everything. I had a group interview with 5 people, and they each asked me around 3 questions about my past experiences and how I'd handle hypothetical situations. It was a really weird and unfriendly vibe. When I talked about my Java background or certain technical terms, they'd say stuff like 'We have no clue either' or 'Yeah, that doesn't even exist.' It felt more like they were testing my character than my skills.

Technical Behavioral

The process started with a phone interview set up by the admin assistant for the executive who would be interviewing me. Everything was handled professionally and on time. The interviewer was very organized and knew the company and the role well. Then, there was an in-person interview. Again, all the arrangements were very professional. For this executive-level role, wearing a suit and tie is expected.

Technical Behavioral

The interview process was decent, though it moved a bit slowly. There were 3 rounds in total: first with the team, then the hiring manager, and finally HR. It was a pleasant experience overall. Before the interview, I had to answer technical questions about SQL and Python.

I had a conference interview with the team lead, my location supervisor, and my academic advisor. We talked about my qualifications, test scores, past training, and what I expected. Then, I chatted with my team members about what I could contribute and what I would get out of the internship.
