I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Union Pacific (Champaign, IL) in Sep 2017
Interview
Very casual discussion about how you handle different situations and giving examples of how you react to setbacks and that sort of thing. Also asked me about my level of knowledge with many different languages.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you handle a situation where a peer or teacher gives you the wrong information?
Virtual panel interview with 4 interviewers (overkill for an internship). The interviewers were quite cold and didn't seem to give feedback after each question, it felt a lot more like they were working down a giant list. Then they asked me to rank my skills with certain technologies 1-5. This went on for about 10 technologies. Didn't receive the rejection for several weeks.
