I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PEAK6 in Feb 2018
Interview
Applied online and was then sent a coding assessment on hackerrank. I solved all the problems and thought I did relatively well, but then was sent an email a few weeks later saying that they're moving on with other candidates.
Submitted my application and was asked to complete an online coding assessment. The hiring environment only allowed me to use python which was annoying because I have more technical background in C++. While the logic is the same, little nuances like string length or syntax caused me to lose a lot of valuable time.

Question 1
2 coding questions, one was about finding words in a string that were separated by spaces but not actual words used, second was about a train schedule.
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PEAK6 (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2017
Interview
Overall, the interview process was fast and smooth:
1. Hackerrank challenge
2. Skype technical interview
3. Onsite interviews: 1. resume review, 2. opportunity to ask questions about the internship, 3. 2hr technical interview

Question 1
The onsite technical interview was just about reading limits and quotes from a csv file and then processing them correctly. (You are given the correct output file as reference.)
