This was a difficult interview in my opinion. It was a phone screen with three engineers. I was grilled about every single aspect of my internship. If I said one or two things, I had to answer every single little detail. I was accused of lying about my tasks at one point. I knew at that point that I was not getting any sort of offer and my expectations were met with a rejection letter a few weeks later.
