Process
I first applied through the school website for the position and was contacted one week later for an on-campus interview.
It was a single 30-45 minute interview where the interviewer asked a lot of HR questions and some technical questions. I prepared beforehand by studying algorithms and data structures, such as hash tables, trees, AVL trees, and linked lists.
After the interview, I was contacted two weeks later by email. I then needed to make an appointment to talk with the recruiter about furthering the process. When I spoke with them on the phone, they offered me the job on the spot.
