Interview
I talked to recruiter at a campus career fair and was confirmed for an interview the next day. The interview was 1 hour with a fairly difficult HackerRank. It had 5 parts, each part building off of the previous and he told me from the start that most people don't finish. I managed to finish 3/5 and got an on-site interview a couple weeks later.

The HackerRank asked me to design an aggregate function that took in a column (a list) as input and outputted its aggregate (min, max, count, mean, sum). Then the parts after will build on it.
