I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Orbis Investments (Vancouver, BC) in Mar 2022
Interview
The first interview was 90 minutes long with two software developers at the company. This was the technical interview they asked trivia questions, one debugging questions, and two and easy leetcode questions.
The second interview was behavioural.
Seems like overkill for a 4-month intern position.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Orbis Investments (London, England) in Dec 2021
Interview
Interviewed by a man and a woman, the programming challenge didn’t make any sense from a high level, so was impossible to complete properly. The male interviewer was nice and put me at ease but there was unfriendly body language and demeanour from the woman interviewer.
