I applied online and then heard back about a month later with an interview confirmation. The interview itself was pretty straightforward, mostly behavioral questions. This was just the first of two rounds, and unfortunately, I didn't make it to the second one.

I heard back quickly after applying from a campus recruiter. We had an interview by phone, then I was invited to a super day in person interview. At the super day, you interacted with former interns while you waited, then interviewed with two senior employees. Within two weeks, I heard back about the offer.
