Process

I applied as a student engineer. They liked my resume and reached out for a virtual interview. It was one-on-one and was more of a systems design question. After two weeks, I heard back that I had moved on to the final round of interviews. There were four 45-minute interviews in a five-hour period. Three focused on technical questions, while one was about system design again. I found all the interviewers to be friendly, and the communication from the recruiting department was excellent.
