Colloquio
I signed up online through my university's internal career website. That lead to a brief email chain followed by a 45 minute on-campus interview.
The first ~15 minutes of my interview was about why I would choose NGC over my previous company. I felt like she was insinuating that I wasn't wanted back. I've never had a recruiter be so suspicious. For reference, my Lockheed interviewers saw this as a positive, not a negative.
Then we did technical questions. I listed them below.
The next bit was her explaining what she does at NGC and me asking questions about the company culture, positions, day-to-day, etc. I mentioned I was interested in software and she said software interns mostly test software tools and I would only be looking at code around 50% of the time, if that. It felt discouraging. I truly appreciate honesty but this felt... unwarranted? Harsh? Tactless?
Needless to say, I'm no longer considering NGC.

The entire recruitment process was surprisingly smooth and straightforward. I had the opportunity to meet a talented recruiter on my college campus, and after a few weeks of discussions and exchanging ideas, I was given the chance to interview with a manager. The process was well-organized and efficient, allowing me to quickly progress through the various stages of the hiring process and ultimately secure the position I desired. The recruiters and managers I interacted with were professional, friendly, and highly knowledgeable, making the experience both enjoyable and educational. I appreciated the effort put into ensuring that each candidate had a positive experience and felt valued throughout the process. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of it.

Behavioral questions about yourself and project you worked on
Very Simple, they just asked me quesitons straight off of my resume. They didn't seem that interested in anything that wasn't on my resume. It seemed like they were training a new interviewer and
