After I applied online, I had an in-person interview at the manufacturing site. I talked with three people from the team, and one of them was going to be my supervisor. After the interview, they gave me a quick tour and asked if I wanted to stay for lunch, which they provided. I never heard back after that, and I found out I didn't get the job from an automated message.

So the interview has two parts. First, there's a structural quiz, which is pretty easy if you study up a bit. Then, there's a second quiz with a lot of questions, but it's impossible to finish in the 3 minutes they give you. After that, they just ask personal questions and some about school to get to know you better. What I didn't like is they wouldn't tell me where the internship was, just that it was in a small town. It was kinda annoying they weren't more direct with applicants.
