Interview
They send you a document (about 2 pages long) to fill out and send back. They specifically say in the email that the hiring manager will be in contact, but they don't respond back at all. Not even an email saying the position is filled. Poor company practice towards potential employees.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asks if you are comfortable speaking in front of groups, what you are looking for in an internship, and also about when you are available to speak on the phone.
Very helpful and fast. Asked specific questions that pertain to the project. The interviewer made me feel very comfortable and helped me through the process. Overall the experience was very well and the staff was great.

Interview
I have been rejected from MANY internships after an interview, but never left a review--until today. Met with the hiring manager, who, despite working at the company for months, was unable to describe any of the progress she had made in the role and was clearly looking for an underpaid intern who could figure it out for her. I'm not sure how you "get started" on your job's main objective 5 months into your tenure. Since she has no idea what she is doing, she used my interview time as work filler and kept reminding me that she wanted to fill up the full 30 minutes so she just asked me random impersonal questions, sometimes repeating herself or asking questions straight from my resume and scowling at/mocking my responses. I really wish I had just left the interview because she was going out of her way to show her disinterest (unlike any interview i've ever had). I get that i'm a disposable intern, but that doesn't mean you get to treat me as such--you're wasting my time as well and I have final exams . It was also strange how she said her job is basically just for show and she has no real authority to make any decisions, and tried to discourage me from entering her field. Just felt really unprofessional and like a waste of time. Good luck to the intern who is stuck with this position, because I have a feeling you'll be doing for $15/hr, what she cannot figure out for 6 figures.
