I had done lots of research about the company. What the company did, how the workers from the company represented themself, and why anyone would want to work there. The process was somewhat stressful because when everyone was getting internship offers, I was waiting for them to open the position that I was interested in. The whole process was very quick. I applied, and a few weeks later, I got a response for the first interview. The recruiter thankfully gave me the questions for the first interview, so I was prepared. Soon after the first interview, they knew who they wanted for the second interview. I was one of the few who got the second interview. Which was almost a week after the first interview. The second interview was different, this is where they had people from higher positions interview me. This time around, they did not give us the questions and even asked some different ones. Those different questions were more concerned with how I would handle or react in certain situations. The second round of interviews was on a Thursday, and they said they would get back to me the following week. On Monday, they offered me the job. In the beginning, I was stressed, mostly because I was putting all my eggs in one basket waiting for the position to open up. Once the process got started, it was at a good pace, and I was hardly stressed because of how well the communication was from the recruiter. This made me want to be a part of the organization even more because the onboarding process was easy and quick.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I recently applied to a job where there were around 60 applicants.
