Interview
Meet their recruiter on Campus (Penn State University), received an email from her to month later asking me if I am still interested in this position. I had an interview on a phone for 15 minutes. Was asked general questions about my Qualifications and knowledge of Excel, plus previous experience and school activities. After our conversation I send her a follow up email with my Letters of Recommendation and received an official offer 1 week after.
Interview Questions
All of them were pretty easy, like "How familiar are you with Excel". The only hard thing for me was- the email was absolutely spontaneous and unexpected, so I had literally 15 minutes to prepare for the interview and had almost no knowledge about the company.
