I was contacted after applying online for the internship role, I successfully completed the online coding challenge, and was asked to do a behavioral online assessment. Upon completion, I was asked to schedule an interview time. I replied with a time slot that worked with me, and mentioned that I was flexible. Then I did not get any replies for 2 weeks. I had asked about a status update, but then was ghosted by the employer. After three weeks of no reply, I got an email saying that all the positions were filled for the coming season, so they decided to interview me for a different year. I was again asked to schedule a time, and I responded with a time that worked with me. Again, I had no emails back for 2 weeks, then they sent me a rejection email without having interviewed me. I was left feeling confused to what happened, and the whole ghosting situation was stressful. Definitely did not feel respected.

Three out of the four rounds were normal. The first round was an algorithm question, it was more of a "practical" type of question than some leetcode question. The seconds was a system design question which was like any system design question vague so nothing new there. Third was exec chat which felt unnecessary. The fourth and last one was another algorithm question. The guy had no interest in being in this interview. He couldn't clearly ask what it was he wanted and he was getting frustrated when I wasn't understanding his asks. "Let's write some pseudo code here" Then five minutes left in the interview "This is fine but I don't want pseudo code, please write functioning code here". Mind you he still hasn't told me what the input was. This last round was one of the top two worst interview experience I've ever had. It really put me off to the company.
On the bright side, The recruiters were quick and friendly.
