I applied online and got invited for an interview. They were doing internships late around end of April and May and starting was in June first week. The process is simple and got a call first and invited me to come in-person, make you fill out some paper work as well. Other than that, two people did the interview. The questions were pre-determined and they had a packed of questions that they asked. I would say around 10+ questions and let you ask questions as well.
