Interview
Applied online for the Software Engineer Intern position and within approximately a week I had a initial phone screen with a member of the HR team. She was very kind and after that she set me up with a one hour technical phone interview with a senior member of the engineering team. The technical phone interview lasted about 40 minutes and covered questions on my background as well as questions relating to sorting, data management, and object-oriented programming. I was rejected at the end of the technical interview, but the interviewer was very nice about it.

Interview
The interview process consisted of several rounds of technical and behavioral interviews. The technical interviews consisted of fairly simple questions which tested your basic ability to code, problem solve, and explain your thought process clearly. The behavioral interviews consisted of typical team-oriented behavioral questions that allow the candidate to showcase their experience and show personality.
