The first-round interview consisted of a brief 30 min video call with a friendly HR representative who explained the role and asked several questions. It was very culture-focused. At the end of the call, the HR representative told me to keep an eye on my inbox for the second-round development Java coding challenges. Several days later, I received an email from the HR representative letting me know that they would not be moving forward with my application. I was a bit confused because of what was said in the call and had already spent some time reviewing my Java and preparing for the coding challenges, so I was disappointed to hear they had changed their mind. However, due to Covid-19, I understand that there are probably more applicants than usual so they must be extremely picky when selecting applicants, and the decision probably came from someone higher up than the HR representative. One thing I did that I believe negatively impacted my interview was appear too interested in consulting, while the Internship was not a consulting role. In the rejection email, the HR rep included some other consulting positions at Veeva for future consideration. Overall, the experience in the interview was nice, but the results were misleading and disappointing.
