I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Visa Inc. (Urbana, IL) in Jan 2015
Interview
I first applied via University, stating that I wanted to be a backend engineer. Got chosen to do a campus interview. The first was with an alumni working at Visa, which got me to the next stage which was a technical interview on campus, where they asked me javascript/css questions (kinda disappointing since I specifically said I wanted to do backend) which I had no practice with, and didn't receive an offer. Later, around December I received a basic phone screening from a recruiter asking if I was still interested in an internship. I got scheduled into a 30 minute phone interview with my soon to be manager where I just went over past experiences/classes/resume.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is one of the most challenging project you have work on and how did you handled it?
I had two rounds - the first was behavioral and the second was a coding challenge on HackerRank. The problem lies in the second round. I took the coding challenge on my own and I could not crack it within the given time. But I know a lot of people who crack it by taking help from friends who are good at coding. In fact it is the friends who do the coding and not the actual candidate. This is totally unfair - you lose for being ethical. I think it is high time the company reviewed its hiring process.
