I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at PPG in Dec 2018
Interview
Fairly easy. Emailed back and forth then there was one in person interview. However the people I was interviewed by were rude, arrogant, and even laughed at me under their breath multiple times.

Just typical “name some challenges you came across in your field”
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at PPG

Simple behavioral questions and some questions about your classes. There are no technical questions, as they know that the interns do not know much and don't have the technical experience.

My interview was a phone call interview and was short and professional. The HR manager at PPG asked quite standard questions about coursework and related work experience and were quick to make a decision.
Very smooth and all the people were very accommodating. The interview was very informative of the role and I heard back in a timely matter. Overall very good experience and would recommend
