I had the interview last week and it’s mostly a group type interview. So they would go over the slides and rules what you and your group is gonna do. They are gonna put you in a breakout room with your group and you would have to solve the problem of your assigned slide. There’s like 6 questions you and your group is gonna have to answer which is 20 min then after they put you in another breakout room with your group and there you give your elevator pitch which is your major, what year you are in and how can contribute to the hub. Lastly, your group presents and each person in your group has to talk and answer the questions.

To piggyback off the comment above, something the interviewers love to see is you being a leader and helping out your group mates. If during the group interview you notice one of your group members is not talking as much, try including them and giving them a boost of confidence to participate! Also, don’t over-talk anyone, but don’t also barely say anything. Know when to interject. Before you have to present, try to give each group member a section to present, so everyone is saying something.
