The interview process involved back-to-back interviews. The first was a 30-minute interview with one person, and the second was a 45-minute interview with two people. Overall, it was a pretty smooth process. Everyone involved in the interviews was relevant to the role I was applying for. I was never interviewed by HR.

HR gave me a call and set up the first interview for the following week. It was pretty straightforward. Then, HR took several weeks to schedule the next round, which also went fine. I had to chase HR for feedback, which was good, but no offer came through. I tried reaching out to her again multiple times, but no response. After about a month, HR called back, saying her manager was busy, and booked another interview. Instead of interviewing me, the interviewer just showed off and didn't even listen to my answers. HR initially said there would only be two rounds. They wanted someone to join immediately but didn't hire quickly.

I applied online and then got an email from the recruiter to set up a phone screen. I passed that and moved on to the second round. I felt really good about it, but it's tough these days with interviewers being passive-aggressive, making you think you did great when it's not enough. After that, I emailed to check on my application status and got no response. It was a good experience overall, but it's terrible and unprofessional when you ghost candidates. Now I have a completely different view on Toro.

I submitted my resume on the campus portal and got an invite for an on-campus interview. The interview lasted 45 minutes and was all behavioral questions. A week later, I got an email saying I was invited for a second round at their headquarters. I had the second round interviews over the phone because I couldn't make it to Bloomington. I had two interviews back-to-back. The first was with the IS Security division of Toro, and the second was with the Director of Applications department. The IS interview started with them asking me if I had any questions for them, then they asked me a couple of technical questions about network security. The interview with the Director was more about the director telling me about the intern program, talking about my past experiences, and what I was looking to gain from the experience.
