I had two interviews for the student assistant position. The first one was a phone screen where I talked with the lead and some team members. Then, I had an on-site interview with the same people from the phone screen.

Behavioral Technical

So, they have these mock interviews that are tough, and they do them virtually for everyone, no matter your experience level or what industry you're in. They also have a huge collection of interview questions, like thousands, with advice on how to answer them. You can even rate and share your answers to get feedback. Plus, there's a full video course that teaches you everything about getting a job, and this tool called Answer Builder that walks you through creating answers for behavioral questions.

Technical Behavioral

It took over 4 weeks of emailing back and forth between the recruiter and me. I was in direct contact with an engineer. HR only got involved after the engineering team gave the green light. Everyone was really nice and direct. They treated me like I was part of a lab, not just a company.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Were there technical questions about engineering that were straightforward?
