The interview process started with an HR screening call, followed by two technical interview rounds. The HR call was mainly for screening purposes. After that, I was invited for an in-person interview. Two team members interviewed me during the face-to-face round. They began with some fundamental questions, and based on my answers, they delved into more in-depth topics.

Technical Coding Behavioral

I had a phone interview that lasted about 30 minutes, and it happened within a week of applying. It wasn't too challenging. Mostly, they asked about my projects. The interviewer also talked a lot about what projects I might work on during the internship. It seemed important to them that I had experience with Mathematica coding, as they asked me to share some of my best code examples afterward.
