I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at National Instruments (Troy, NY) in Oct 2015
Interview
National instruments made an info session in the college that I study and I attended. After the presentation some recruiters stayed there and chat with us. They gave us more details about the job and took our resumes with no need to apply online.
Two weeks after it I received and email inviting for a campus interview. The interview took about 40 minutes and we went through technical and behavioral questions.

Question 1
They worked with me through the process of how to implement a system to record a person voice in a computer. They asked the question as stages like, "What would you use?" very general then they asked "But the computer would be able to read the microphone directly?" which was even a tip to know that should put a converter since the microphone output is analog and the computer is only able to read digital signals.
It was also asked a pretty basic question about software that was "given an array not ordered which numbers in the range 1-100, suppose it is missing a number how would you proceed to know which number is missing?"
