Interview
It seemed to be a very basic process- there was only one interview, and it was done by phone. At the time I was asking for an internship between senior year and my Master's, which they were very interested in. A lot of the questions were about my resume, clarifying what certain activities meant and what I had learned from them.

Question 1
What have you learned in your engineering courses that would be relevant to this job position?
They asked me a few questions about my degree and the modules I was studying. The rest of the interview was spent looking at my portfolio and my work at university.
The process was very professional, and they got back to me throughout in a timely manor. The people who interviewed me were not the most friendly or personable, and made the process quite intimidating.
