The interview process was okay, and I successfully completed it. I had a specific goal but didn't mention it. It was acceptable, better than not doing anything. Changing the pace was necessary, and I had to go for another interview. So, it was okay.

Technical Behavioral
So, in total, there were 3 interviews. The first one was on campus where an HR person and a senior design engineer came to my school. We talked for about an hour. It was mostly technical, but the HR person did throw in some behavioural questions. The second part was on site, and I had two rounds with two different managers. These were also focused on technical problem-solving. Honestly, everyone was super nice and it wasn't scary at all. The technical questions were all pretty much from engineering basics, nothing too tough.
