Process

I had an interview day, which included a personal presentation and then a group task.

The day went well, and I received an offer.

However, I was subsequently unable to contact anyone at IBM to answer my questions.

I sent multiple emails, none of which were replied to.

Pros: Not a single bad experience with other colleagues. IBM does a great job hiring talented and kind individuals. Great opportunities, and not restricted to one project, making it easy to try new technologies you're generally interested in. Very social and friendly environment. You will want to be in the office more than frequently.

Cons: Some office conditions were a tad outdated and in need of a refurbish. Even though it's an intern position, the pay should be more than what they offer.
