I applied through other source. I interviewed at Accenture
Interview
The interviewer worked in tech, but said he didn't know (or couldn't be bothered) to figure out how to change his background on zoom to something professional (or just blur it), so he was just sitting in a very messy kitchen. The interviewer said the process would be more of "a conversation" than "a formal interview" but dominated the conversation himself. That itself made the interview "difficult", as I had to look for places to politely get to speak up about my experience. He also seemed incredibly unsure of the responsibilities of the offered position, which seemed incredibly strange, given that Accenture offers many internships in IT. Either the company never prepped him, or he never bothered to find out. Either way, not a good look.
I heard back from the interviewer after my polite follow up, but not about if I was given an offer or declined. I was interviewing through another program with several other interns, so their offer went through the program, which matched us with the company they thought would be the best fit. I ended up going in another direction (thankfully, with a much better company)

The interview process began with an initial technical screening centered around algorithmic problem-solving and my experience handling unstructured data pipelines. This was followed by a technical deep-dive where I was asked to walk through the system architecture of my machine learning workflows, specifically detailing how I benchmarked and tuned my models. The final round felt unstructured and shifted away from core engineering competencies, focusing heavily on domain-specific financial compliance and regulatory frameworks rather than practical AI application development or software prototyping skills.
