Multitouch Sensor Algorithm Engineer Interview Experience - Palo Alto, California

January 1, 2014
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The recruiter initially contacted me and set me up with the inventor of the multitouch technology.

The interview was very brief. It involved 8 questions and no small talk.

The interviewer told me I did well on the screen and gave me a homework assignment, which I have described below.

I thought I did well, but according to them, I didn't. They rejected me after 2 weeks.

I spent a lot of time on this and believe this is the worst possible way to reject an individual.

I am NEVER going to apply to Apple again in my life.

Questions

Homework:

  • Derive group delay of a non-linear phase filter.
