We had a phone interview first. Then, an on-site interview with 5 people, each for about an hour. The interview questions were pretty easy. Presenting your past project portfolio was very helpful. There was also a lunch, and some interview questions were answered during that time.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interview process involved a recruiter call followed by an onsite visit. During the onsite, I had discussions about my resume projects and experiences. It was a quick and direct conversation. The team made me feel comfortable, and they gave me a tour of the facility. I also met the engineers I would be collaborating with and saw their products. Additionally, I received information about their markets and competitors. The process concluded with a background check and an offer.

They started with some basic questions about my resume, skills, and experience. Then, we went into details about the product development process for the internship. They also asked some technical questions about projects I did in undergrad and grad school. The HR person asked some basic stuff about my goals and if I'd be okay moving for work.
