Interview
First went to 2 info-sessions: a general one (included technical roles) and a specific one (only non-technical/rotation program). I applied through a website that the company set up for my school and was invited to an interview later that week. The interview was the following week and consisted of one short one-on-one interview. The attire was business casual and the mood was very casual (at least relative to professional services interviews). My interviewer and the people I met at the info-session were engaging and outgoing in Google-type way.

Submitted my resume and was contacted to complete a 7-question questionnaire. Was then contacted for a phone interview with someone in DRP and then coordinated to fly out to San Francisco for on-site interviews. There were 3 30-minute interviews with one or two employees and a 45 minute tour of the office/cafe. Was asked to prepare a presentation on deep integration of Dropbox with an app.
