How are some ways to show interest? My first interview, he just told me to introduce myself, introduced himself and told me a little bit about the team and intern project in the summer and then asked me if i had any questions and i asked him about specific technical problem the intern dashboard aims to solve, whether the dashboard will mainly use existing APIs or require new infrastructure, languages/frameworks used for backend nodes (Java/Kotlin vs. Go), resources to study Keychain and Google’s encryption approach (none publicly available), what a successful internship looks like (deliverable dashboard), how the team balances maintenance work with innovation, and how the team tests multi‑device key sync edge cases.

Also it was just weird that we only chatted for 5 minutes and then the floor was for me to ask questions. Is this also how your interview went?
