Entrevista
Phone interview was about my experience with C++. In person interview, was a whiteboard interview coding a data structure of my choice. Make sure to study, in particular study data structures. I did a stack with using a linked list in Java. Before that I was presented with a coding joke problem. It was a comic in which robots were killing humans and it showed some incorrect code. The problem was the if statement was
"= " instead of "==" which made the robots start killing the humans.
Next general and behavior computer science questions. Talked about a bit on my resume which they will have at hand. Mentioned my experience as a tutor and operating systems class as they didn't ask this and I thought it would be valuable information . I showed a lot of enthusiasm to a project about frequencies and they really liked that. In the end, I think that's what landed me the job offer.
Aside: Make sure you have a security clearance and mention it if you do. This helps with them favoring you as you can start on the job quicker.

I was referred, which seemed to put me past a couple of the rounds of interviewing. The actual interview was actually really enjoyable compared to my interviews with companies like Boeing and Amazon. The interviewers actually made me want to work with them. The questions were mainly trying to see if you knew what was in your resume, and there were some small technical questions, but nothing too difficult.
