The percentile score in the title is calculated across the entire Company Database and uses an adjusted score based on Bayesian Estimates (to account for companies that have few interview insights). Simply put, as a company gets more reviews, the confidence of a "true score" increases so it is pulled closer to its simple average and away from the average of the entire dataset.

Interview
I had already been networking with the Head of Research at this firm and had an informational interview with him and I knew him from CFA Society events, so he knew I was interested in an internship. I received an email directly from him notifying me that an internship opportunity was available. He specifically reached out to me and two other people in the email and also posted the internship at all the local colleges. The internship description required that we email him a cover letter and resume. He emailed me on Friday March 3rd and Sunday I turned in the application. Maybe two or three days later, he called me and we scheduled an interview for the following Wednesday. This all happened very quickly, so I think it was really important that I had been networking with him before and he already had me in mind, because there wasn't very much time between when he posted the internship and when he selected who he would interview. There was just one 1 on 1 interview for about 30 - 45 minutes. After the interview he introduced me to the other analysts. They seemed nice, I had already met one from a networking event. The culture seems pretty laid back. There are times when it is busy and can be hectic, but the attitudes from the employees seems like they work well together and are pretty grounded.
Interview Questions
They gave me two companies (Home Depot and Starbucks) with their financial statements and a valuation sheet that the company uses. He gave me about five minutes alone to come up with a recommendation on which was the better company to buy and hold for the next 2 - 3 years.

The valuation sheet was interesting it included from what I can remember:

1. Sales from the past 10 years
2. YoY growth
3. Net Income Margin
4. Return on Investments
5. High and Low prices for each year
6. Dividend yield
7. market value
8. shares outstanding
9. Enterprise Value
10. EV/EBITDA

There were a couple other things, but I can't remember and I didn't include them in my recommendation
