The interview was good for testing problem-solving, throwing curveballs to see how I'd react and adapt. They wanted to check my analysis, creativity, and how I handle pressure. The interviewer was professional, making it tough but fair. I felt good about the problems, using logic and staying chill, even though some were super hard and made me think fast. It was a solid test of how I deal with the unknown and stress.

Had a zoom meeting, super casual and chill, just make sure to research the company. Be honest and confident. The interview was about 30 mins. The HR intern gave me a specific date for onboarding, but I had to wait about a week for an update on my application status.
