First-round was a Hirevue interview. After the pandemic hit they notified applicants that they were not taking any more interns. Not sure if they ending up having an internship program or not.
Very straight-forward. You have 1 minute to prep your answer before the 3rd party platform starts auto-recording. Only 1 chance to answer each question. Not sure why they allow us to review our answers when we can't really change anything about it.

Question 1
Is there anything else that you'd like to tell us that is not on your resume
Very easy, just make sure you know what the company does and how they make money. It was one hire vue, recruiter call, and then final round with hiring manager.
