I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Fetch (Chicago, IL)
Interview
Overall it was fine, It was a pretty long being around 5 hours, but it's just because they are expecting a lot out of you not just in terms of Basic software engineering but also database knowledge and system architecture.

Question 1
They asked me how to develop the system architecture(Servers, databases, CDN, etc) and how to properly implement one in the imaginary company they made up for the question.
First they send you a take home project. If your project is good enough, you get an interview with an engineer going through your code; be prepared to answer production level questions. They seemed to expect a high level of experience for an apprenticeship position.
If you fail the interview, they'll give real feedback, which is appreciated.
