The interview process was super smooth. It was conducted by an AI bot. I was asked some high-level design questions. The questions were mostly about my past projects, my contributions to them, the technologies I used, and the algorithms I employed and the reasoning behind their use.

Technical Coding
Shortly after applying for the internship, I got an email for an AI interview. I booked it quickly and did it. It was my first time with an AI interviewer. It was supposed to ask questions about my resume, but it threw questions about stuff I never worked on and that wasn't on my resume. I then mentioned I liked Competitive Programming (CP), so it started asking about Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA). The AI asked some good follow-up questions based on my answers. It was a pretty unique experience. Just make sure your resume is solid and think carefully about what you say. I didn't get selected, but they put me in their talent pool. Maybe the AI wasn't a fan ;)
