Technical Behavioral
I was contacted by a recruitment agency who sent my details over to Imagination. From then on, all communication was through the agency, who apparently passed my messages to the company. They gave me just one day's notice for a phone interview. They wanted to check my knowledge of the company, followed by some technical questions, and then asked about my CV. The technical part involved basic digital logic, some design problems, computer architecture, and a unique design question.
Confirmed questions1 question
