This was last year - for 2025 summer internship. First round with one interviewer, then the second round was two interviews back-to-back. Pretty straightforward LC-style coding challenges. I interviewed in November and unfortunately didn't hear back until January - so that was a bit frustrating to wait so long. But I assume they were going through a lot of internal transitions leading up to the acquisition.
The interviewer will cover the three stages: role introduction, Pokemon-related questions, and Project management experience. It was through a virtual meeting, and the overall experience was good. A contractor role and will not convert into full-time.
