Interview
The interview process was very interesting and light. I applied for the internship program through the career page on their website. One week later, I was contacted by an interviewer and had a short interview over the phone. They asked me questions about what kind of books I'm into and why I want to work for the company. I then set up a face-to-face interview for the following week. Both the initial interviewer and HR rep were friendly and easy to speak to. It was a pleasing process and I got offered the job a week later!

Question 1
There wasn't one. I'm a book worm so the questions about books (my favorite) was right up my alley.
