I applied through college or university. I interviewed at NASA in Mar 2020
Interview
I applied through my university due to a contract they had. I applied directly to the interviewer who was later my boss. After I got an email to schedule an interview. On the day of the Interview, I got normal, behavioral type questions as well as some technical questions about data structures.

Bro they put in a teams call with 3 other teams that I didn't apply to without warning and they ALL asked me questions. They legit read my resume in that exact moment, a lot of them had no idea the interview was happening until they got the teams invite.
