Software Developer Engineer Intern Interview Experience - Bellevue, Washington
Process
They put me up in a nice hotel but actually switched my hotel at the last minute. There were about four 45-minute interviews with the Xbox Connect team, which we were randomly assigned to. Three were technical (one about databases, one about C, and one about some basic Java algorithms), and one was goals/strengths oriented.
As has been stated before, they will really delve deep into anything that you say you "know," so make sure you know it.
