Analog Devices Firmware Engineer interviews, decoded.

We had a panel discussion with the team. It included technical embedded C questions, in-depth debugging questions, RTOS related questions, and a question on cortex M4 architecture. We also discussed my Masters project and questions related to version control tools like Git.

The interview was very technical. They asked in-depth questions about Data structures and Algorithms. Also, questions about Compiler, Linker, RTOS, C, and Thread Handling. There were some basic Electronics questions too, like how an OpAmp and Transistor work. They also asked about my experience working with a multidisciplinary team.

I went in and met with the 3 department leaders. They gave me a pretty long interview, an hour long, and then an English test. During the interview they asked me about my technical knowledge and proposed solutions to different problems I would encounter working.
