Interview
Interviewed on campus, simple behavioral interview. No technical, just answer with the STAR response and you'll be okay. Response times are very varied, some heard back within the same day, others weeks later.

Interview
The process was fun and welcoming. I applied at a career fair and a couple weeks later was scheduled for an interview. It took a while to hear back about results of the interview and I constantly had to call in to find out about updates. Had a phone screen, an onsite interview with 2 interviewers in the room; one asked all the behavioral questions and the other was in charge of the technical questions. Then after offer had to do drug screening.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There was a good balance of behavioral and technical questions. Mostly technical concepts about OOP and one white board coding question (I think it had something to do with arrays). Although I wasn't informed I would be getting tested on technical knowledge at that stage, I managed to answer all the questions I could.
