Met with the company at the career fair, and then shortly after, I had an interview on campus. It was just one round, and they asked behavioral questions. The interviewers were very nice, and it was a pretty standard process. There were two interviewers.

It was a mix of technical and soft skills questions. The interview focused mainly on Python and JavaScript. There were also some questions about debugging short scripts and some basic design questions. The interviewer was very polite. The soft skills questions were about past experiences and encounters.
