This position was with the AMD wireless IP group, a team that was formerly a startup and had been acquired by AMD. They were working on wireless VR systems.

I was reached out to by a recruiter, which was followed by a phone interview with the hiring manager. This interview was mostly a discussion about my background and the job position. Subsequently, there was another technical phone interview with two engineers.

I was then invited on-site for approximately five one-on-one interviews and one lunch interview, where I was answering questions in the middle of having lunch.

Overall, the questions during the on-site interview rounds were straightforward, except for the second round. During this round, the engineer asked a math question based on display and another buffer management question, also based on display. For both questions, it seemed the interviewer had one particular approach or solution in mind and was not open to discussing my solution, which I had derived from scratch. He could not even explain if there were any shortcomings with my approach. From my perspective, this was not a good sign; I would struggle to work with such an engineer who is very close-minded in his approach to solving problems.

After the on-site interviews, there was no communication whatsoever, despite multiple emails and calls to the recruiter and staffing assistant.

The position was relevant to my background in WiFi, and I think the work would have been very interesting and challenging. However, I doubt if I would want to work for a company or team that has a complete disregard for an interview candidate's time.
