Software Engineer
So first up was this online video interview thing on Modern Hire. After that, I had two interviews back-to-back with the tech lead and then the engineering manager. The Modern Hire interview was what got me matched to a specific internship role and team, which I honestly didn't even know existed. Ended up getting rejected, probably because I should've aimed for a role I was more qualified for, but oh well.
