Entrevista
After giving out my resume at the career fair I had a 30 min phone interview the following week. There were a mix of technical and behavioral questions like any typical phone interview. Later that day, I got an invite for a series of 30 min onsite interviews with one of them being a director. The technical interviews were okay in terms of questions but there just wasn't enough time to cover all of them. If they had that many questions to ask they should have made it 45 min interviews. For example, in one interview I was asked a linked list question, a tree traversal, an sql query, a brain teaser and regular "tell me about yourself" and "what are you interested in doing" questions. Everything was fast paced and there wasn't much time to think and address one particular problem in depth. I felt the pressure and could not think straight on one of the interviews.

ONSITE #4: this was with a director and was fully behavioral. You just talk about yourself, your interests and goals etc. Just participate in the conversation and keep nodding to whatever he is blabbering and you will be fine. Make sure to ask a lot of questions!
