Southwire put out a job ad in my university's CS department. I sent in my resume and they came to campus for interviews. The interview was pretty standard, with questions mostly confirming my resume's accuracy. But the recruiters were vague about the intern roles and responsibilities. This left me unsure about what I was getting into and how to best present myself. They said they'd be in touch, but it's been about a year and I haven't heard back.

It was a two stage interview process. We talked about previous jobs and how I could use what I learned in school and work to help the company. They also asked about my classes and if any of my schoolwork could be useful here. I also learned a lot about the company.
