A friend told me about their big company's interview process for interns from Ivy Leagues, which was getting flown out to a party and then getting an internship. The candidates weren't asked any technical questions, since they were assumed to be smart enough to learn how to code in bootcamp. It made me feel confused about myself for a while, since I didn't have a job or much experience and it was hard enough getting a phone screen.
