California, MDPosted Mar 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

For the internship interview, the process started with conceptual questions about object-oriented programming—how to define classes and inheritance.

We also went through a rundown of my past projects, and I was asked about how to use Spring Boot.

The behavioral portion included the typical “strengths and weaknesses” style questions, plus prompts like describing my superpower and a time I completed a project on my own with minimal guidance. Overall the difficulty felt average, and I ended up receiving an offer. What surprised me most was how much the conversation mixed technical conceptual clarity with personal storytelling, so my ability to explain both mattered.
