The interview process was quick and informative. It took weeks to get a response from HR, and I didn't hear anything back after following up. I was pretty much ghosted by the interviewer until they made a decision, sadly.

I got an email to set up an interview with the team. We had a 30-minute interview with 3 people. I got an offer the same day. If you are interviewing for internships, they will probably ask you behavioral questions. Make sure to prepare answers for common questions and practice them with friends. It depends on the interviewers, but also research the company. Good luck with your interviews!
