It was a phone call interview with HR. They asked basic questions about my resume experiences. It started with my education and then asked several questions about school projects. After that, we moved on to work experiences, going into a lot of detail. It was a very standard process.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process involved some basic questions about my qualifications and experience. There were a few behavioral questions, but mostly it was about why I was interested in the company and the specific role I applied for. Overall, it was a good experience, but it took about 3 weeks between the first and second screen, which was longer than I expected.

I applied at the university career fair and got a response about a month later for an on-site interview. The questions were all about whether I knew the company. I think I did well, but I never heard back. They didn't even call to let me know I was rejected.
