This process involved 4 main interviews: a screening call, an initial programming interview, and two technical interviews. It took around 4 weeks in total. I was in touch with the recruiter throughout. Be ready to discuss past projects and experiences, as they really like to ask about those.

Technical Behavioral
It was a pretty direct interview process. Started with two phone screens, then moved onto a 7-person panel, which was broken down into individual sessions. The panel included folks from systems, hardware, software, and TPM backgrounds. They asked me questions about V&V testing for systems, how to generate and validate requirements, and also some stuff on data analysis and simulations.
Confirmed questions1 question
- For this specific use case requirement, what requirement would you generate at the behavior module level, and how would you proceed with validating it?
