Go more in-depth on your experiences and how they relate to this internship.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Discover (Riverwoods, IL) in Aug 2023
Interview
The interview process took 3 weeks and there were 4 virtual interviews: an interview with HR (screening), an interview with the Hiring Manager and 2 additional interviews with Professionals from the Cyber Security division. Each interview took between 30-45 minutes. During each interview I was asked about my pervious experience as a Scrum Master and different scenarios that I had to act when blockers or impediments were interrupting the development team to meet deadlines. At the end of the hiring process, I waited 2 additional weeks for a final answer. I reached out to the HR personal 1 week after sending thank you letters to my interviews and was replied back that the team decided to hire another candidate. When I asked for a feedback, I was never gotten a response back.
