Interview
Had two interviews. First one on campus, then received an email for a second round to their headquarter. Overall very organized second round. Second round was tough. Have two 50 min behavior questions with two different recruiters. Second recruiter doesn't seem to know the process. He literally asked me about 15 behavioral questions and barely wrote anything down. First guy was awesome. Overall pretty good experience. Got the offer 3/4 days later.
