I received a call to arrange an interview just days after I applied. The interview was one hour long and consisted of a technical coding section in Java and a puzzle question. It was conducted online due to coronavirus fears.

For the technical coding, I was asked to code a function that returns true if a given string was a valid email address, and false otherwise. For the second part, a puzzle question was given. It was quite easy, and although I came close but didn't quite solve it, a small tip from the interviewer allowed me to find the solution.

Just a day after the interview, I received a call with the internship offer. Overall, the interview was pretty easy but also a valuable experience for practicing live coding (even though it wasn't extensive).
