I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at USAA (Phoenix, AZ) in Jul 2024
Interview
Interview was in two stages, an online coding assessment and an interview with the hiring team. The coding assessment was three easy level leetcode questions. The interview consisted of behavioral questions, technical questions, and two live coding problems.

Question 1
If you had to pick something, what was something you didn't enjoy about your last job?
The whole interviewing process is pretty straight forward, the first half is on understanding of Java and OOP design, and the second half of the interview is about behavior questions.
I applied through university. I interviewed at USAA (San Antonio, TX)
Interview
1st interview was on my college campus, it was one on one, and not very technical. 2nd interview was onsite, single interview with a manager and senior software developer, also not very technical. For the second interview we were put up in a nice hotel and taken to dinner as a group by a manager and a relatively new software developer. In the morning we were all picked up and taken onsite for a tour and interview. It was an all day thing, but only one interview.
