I applied online. I interviewed at National Grid (Albany, NY) in Oct 2022
Interview
After applying online I got an email 3 days later that I met the minimum qualifications for the internship. After 4 more days, I got an email saying I made it to the first round of interviews which was a hirevue, and had 4 days to complete it. It had 5 questions followed by a short number game(puzzles/matching) and a personality quiz at the end. I got my rejection email a week later.

I interviewed at National Grid (Long Island City, NY)
Interview
It was honestly really hard to talk to them, maybe because I was still new at interviews and did not have much experience, but thats on me, overall a lot of behavioral questions.
6-7 behavioral questions on Hireview that could be rerecorded up to 3 times followed by 2 tests, one had to do with your short-term working memory ability and the other had to do with your spatial reasoning
