I applied for the Python Developer internship for Summer 2020.

The recruiting team was very efficient, sending out an online assessment (OA) within a week of my application and scheduling a phone interview within two weeks of my OA submission.

The OA had at least five hidden test cases, according to my friend who works there, so be careful.

The OA consisted of 10 multiple-choice questions covering general knowledge of algorithms, architecture, and databases. You do not have to get them all correct, as I missed at least one. It also included a design-based coding challenge.

The phone interview was not like a typical tech interview but more of a Python trivia session. Be sure to read through the Python documentation, as it is not easy at all.

What does the pickle module do?

How does Python perform garbage collection?

What's the difference between is and ==, and how do you override both?
