Process
I submitted an online application through campus career services and received a response two months later to schedule an on-campus interview. The interview was about an hour long.
I was asked about my position preference: software engineer, project management, or testing. I was also asked what I am interested in and what projects I have worked on. Finally, I was asked a technical question.
