Process
There were multiple rounds of coding interviews, and also one round of chatting at a high level about how I’d solve a problem they were working on. The interview was on-site, so I got flown out to Bellevue.
Questions
Some dynamic programming questions, data structure questions, and standard algorithm questions (graphs, stacks, etc.)

Pros: Great benefits and internship events. I got to meet a lot of interesting people from different groups. Overall, a pretty good vibe.
Cons: For a first-year intern, you have relatively little control over which team you will be placed on. You are placed into an organization and can be assigned to a team that doesn't necessarily fit your interests.
