Behavioral Presentation
The internship process was pretty smooth. I had submitted my portfolio beforehand which did the brunt of the work so I did not feel the need to over-explain. I went over 2-3 of my favorite projects and spoke to higher-ups regarding ongoing projects and what my design interests are both short-term and long-term.
