I applied through university. I interviewed at Nordstrom
Interview
Met an engineer during my university’s career fair. At the end of the conversation, I was given a link to complete a form that took my information and let them know that I attended a Nordstrom recruiting event. After that I was emailed a link on an online assessment. The assessment was held in a third party, outdated, IDE. My code failed most tests. When I moved the code over to my own IDE after the assessment was over, it passed all tests. With this experience and with past employees telling me that they left Nordstrom due to its lack of modern software, I ended up not being so upset about them not moving forward with me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I can’t remember if I signed an NDA, but it was a standard Leetcode easy/medium question.
Phone screen followed by a four-interview loop. Phone screen was as you'd expect. Loop consisted of an architecture panel, behavioral, behavioral, then two leetcode-style questions. One of them was based on a sorting algorithm.

Question 1
Asked questions based on implementing sorting algorithms
Interview round included 4x45 min loop interview: behavioral, trendsetter, coding, and system design. For the behavioral and trendsetter, I was asked mostly about experiences. My trendsetter got really technical, as I was asked system design questions...

Question 1
Tell me about a product you deployed. For the coding round, I received a LC medium.
4 loop interviews: 1st round system design, 2nd round behavioral round, 3rd round Bar raiser, 4th round coding round. Overall, the process was good. I wasn't very well prepared for system design round
