Process
I applied online and secured two interviews over Google Hangouts. Although I am a sophomore, I received a freshman interview because I haven't taken many CS classes. The first interview consisted of a code reading exercise, and the second was a programming exercise.

Pros: I got to work with a fabulous team with excellent dynamics, doing interesting work. The support for interns was definitely there. The perks were out of this world, and almost anyone was open to reaching out and grabbing a cup of coffee with.
Cons: You can end up feeling like an extremely minuscule part of the company because it is so large. I was definitely lucky and got a team that was top-notch and extremely welcoming to interns, but others might not be so fortunate. While my team dynamic was great, some other interns had less ideal experiences. Being at this internship can definitely spoil you for other places.
