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.

Entire process took about a week . Got a phone call from Senior Scientist regarding about this position. Interviewer was friendly and asked questions mostly about what I want to do after graduating from college
