First round was a brief phone call with HR. Then second interview was in-person with the manager.
The manager I interviewed with was not very nice, would interrupt me in the middle of my sentence, was not approachable. They did not even get back to me for three weeks until I basically begged HR to hear back. I found out through my status on "JobVite".
They finally replied days later saying they found someone else. I asked for any feedback, they did not respond. That was it. Very unprofessional.

Who are our competitors and how do you think we can overcome them? (ps: as interns, this is a little ambitious of a question to ask.. interns are there to learn from scratch)
We’re sorry to hear that your interview experience wasn’t great – we very much appreciate the feedback and will be sure to continue to look at our processes, including hiring manager training, to find ways to improve going forward.
Candidatura
Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Rakuten Kobo.
Entrevista
There was a technical portion and a behavioural portion to the interview. The technical part was based around javascript. Overall, it was doable, and the people in the interview were all very nice
The interview process was pretty straightforward. After applying I was met with a phone call, and immediately got an email stating to set a second interview and then a video call with the hiring manager.

Was called in for an interview, thought it went fairly well. The two interviewers were engaging and friendly and asked interesting questions. I was never contacted afterwards - pretty unprofessional.
