Candidate-reported interview process
I went over some circuit problems, both analog and digital. Then we looked at some Python code. They also asked about my school projects and previous experience, like how I integrated a tank robot with a Raspberry Pi.
I went through a campus recruitment drive for the post silicon validation engineer role. The interview was mainly about the projects on my resume. They also asked about electronics basics.
I applied on LinkedIn and got a call from the company asking if I was interested and to schedule a technical interview. The manager and engineer were nice and patient during the whiteboard questions via video call. It was direct and tested my ability to process info and tackle problems, even new ones. The job application to offer took about a month, but the visa took longer, around three months.
