Behavioral
I sent in my application online. The entire process, from applying to interviews to actually starting the internship, took about three months. I had an interview with a panel. They asked typical behavioral questions and went over my resume. Afterward, I got a tour of the office and met a lot of the team. Everyone here seems genuinely nice, passionate about their work, and committed to the company.

In the first interview, I was with three people from the team. They asked me behavioral questions, like what I would do in specific situations, and then I had to interpret a blueprint. I got to pick which blueprint to analyze, and they had blueprints for mechanical, civil, and electrical engineers.
