I really didn't like how they did the interviews. It was all automated, asking me to reply to questions with videos. It felt super impersonal and different from other interviews because there was no real talking to anyone.

I got an interview and a spring insight day through a talent network. Then there was another interview, but I didn't get the internship. However, even if you don't get the internship, there are still other opportunities like mentorship and interview help available through the scheme I was on.

Behavioral Technical
It was a very structured online interview with 5 questions. These questions were about my work strategy and personality. They were a bit hard to think of answers on the spot, but not too challenging overall. You could re-record your answers if you didn't get it right the first time.
