Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

OA: Two Roblox logic puzzles, short essay, and personality/working style quiz.

Final: Two 45 min LC med-hards and a 30 min behavioral.

Did not finish the first technical but answered the second in 25 mins, did not get an offer. Company fit seems to matter a lot too.

SWE Intern • Current Employee

Pros: Pay is good for interns as well as new grads. Probably the only good thing about this internship. Most people are nice.

Cons: Unstructured project, unhelpful mentor, and interns are told in the last week of their internship that the return offer rate is throttled to 50% (from the 95% we were told by the recruiters). Half of the interns didn't get return offers while they were encouraged to refer 15 more people for new grad positions.
