Good Perks, Boring Projects
Good Perks, Boring Projects
The intern program goes to a lot of effort to make sure you're supported.
The corporate housing was nice. The office I was in was nice. Free snacks galore. Very good work-life balance (I was in around 9 am and out around 4 pm with a 1.5-hour lunch at some point during the day). The pay was excellent.
Most of the interns had horrible projects (in the sense that they're boring/meaningless; all the projects were easy), including myself.

Normal powerday interview. It was pretty easy. Normal OOP technical with a banking question. The case interview was a little harder. Behavioral was normal. Focus on OOP concepts. All interviewers were really nice and helpful.

Easy, one case, one behavioral, one technical interview. By far the easiest interview I ever had. Normal behavioral questions, and for the case, just think from a business standpoint. Prep LeetCode Easy for the technical.

Easy. Four rounds. 1. Behavioral. 2. Coding. 3. A “technical business” discussion. 4. A system design round based on resume and experience. Interviewers were nice and fair. The recruiter was very pushy and didn’t give me time to decide on the offer
