The interviewer was friendly and communication was quick and professional. It's nice to have an on-site office interview, but the process feels too long for an intern application. It includes a test, a mini-case study, and an in-person office work day with a case study. It's thorough for the company, but I feel like it takes a lot of time, energy, and money for candidates. Maybe shortening the hiring process a bit for interns would be beneficial, a take-home assignment or an in-house case study is more than enough.

One of them was quite rude. They acted superior, as if they were the best company and I needed to impress them. I voluntarily withdrew after the first interview. I can't recommend this company.
