The whole process went by incredibly quickly. After applying directly to a recruiter, I completed a coding challenge through HackerRank as part of the screening process.

I then received a call from the recruiter to walk me through the interview steps, which was a very kind gesture towards an intern.

After that, there were two phone interviews, each just a week apart. Both went rather smoothly, but I was rejected by email just hours after the second interview.

While no feedback was provided, and although I thought the technical portion of the interviews went well, I have a hunch that they were looking for someone with more university and extracurricular project experience, something which I lacked.

In a previous interview with another firm, I was asked some simple questions on array sorting, integer to string parsing, and merging intervals.
