Behavioral Technical

I talked to HR first, then had online interviews via Microsoft Teams with two engineers where they asked me behavioral questions and probed into my past experiences listed on my resume. No technical questions were asked during the interview.

Behavioral Technical

I chatted with them at my school's career fair and got an email for an interview about a week later. I'm from California, and they initially scheduled an interview for their New York headquarters. I emailed them back saying I'd prefer an LA office, and they connected me to the LA office. After about 9 emails, I had an hour-long interview set up with two senior engineers. I got there 25-30 minutes early, so I waited for them for that amount of time before the interview, which lasted about an hour and fifteen minutes.

Technical Behavioral

I applied after meeting them at a school career fair. They got back to me in about 3 weeks. I then had an on-site interview at their office. This consisted of three separate 30-minute sessions: one with an engineer in my specific field, one with a Product Manager, and one with the principal. About two weeks after the interview, I got an offer letter.
