Recruiters were nice, and there was one phone interview followed by a longer interview on Teams. They asked basic interview questions and some hypotheticals. They also shared details about the internship and responsibilities. Just take a deep breath and be yourself.

I applied and then had a 15-minute phone screen. After that, there was a final interview that lasted an hour. The final interview was with the hiring manager over Microsoft Teams and included both behavioral and technical questions. I also had time to ask my own questions at the end.

After applying online, I got an email pretty fast to schedule an in person interview. The process included a phone interview for about 30 minutes, then an interview with HR, and finally one with the managers.
