Thoughts:
Wasn't originally going to post this but then I remembered how helpful these were when I was studying for my interview.

I answered all the questions easily and thought I did well on the LPs. They called 3 business days later and told me more or less the same thing but that I was rejected because I did not have enough overall work experience, and that I would easily get a position if I applied again 9 to 12 months later. Kinda bummed about that because of the time commitment this took but oh well. I think I used a lot of examples from university and hackathons for my LPs as opposed to work examples which is entirely my fault because I could have easily used work examples for most of them.
