First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Wave Computing.
Software Engineer
It was a 1-hour technical phone interview focusing on Python basics and OOP concepts. The interview went well, and I was offered a position the next day. It wasn't too difficult. Since the company seems to be acquired, the interview process might be different now.
- Could you explain what lists, dictionaries, and tuples are?
- Can you describe the concepts of class, object, inheritance, and polymorphism?
Software Engineer
The HR person mentioned they're trying to hire more women for the software team in Manila. I had a technical interview with two male engineers. One of them asked me why I wasn't smiling and suggested I should smile more. I found this a bit inappropriate and potentially sexist, as I've never heard a male candidate asked to smile more. I haven't heard back from them since the interview, and they didn't even send a rejection notice.
- A basic question about C++.
- Why weren't you smiling?
- You ought to smile more.
Intern
I submitted my application online and then had a telephonic interview that lasted about 45 minutes. It was with two managers and they asked me basic stuff about verilog and RTL design.
- Can you explain cache coherence and provide some basic computer architecture questions?
- Tell me about UVM.
- What are the OOP concepts in SV?
Verification Engineer
The first step was a phone screen where I was asked about my experience and some basic UVM stuff. After passing that, I had a 4-person on-site interview. They had me code in assembly, write driver code for AHB protocol, talk about monitor-scoreboard connectivity, and UVM phases.
- Can you write the driver code for AHB protocol?
