Hardware Engineer Interview Experience - La Jolla, California
Process
I applied via my school's job portal. They were having on-campus interviews, so I thought it was a good chance.
Unfortunately, I didn't know they would ask me to draw logic gates from their truth tables, and I hadn't refreshed on it. It wasn't that difficult since it was an intern position I was applying for.
He asked questions about logic gates and drawing their circuits. There were also many questions about projects I'm doing, but I wasn't able to draw the schematics since that wasn't something I had committed to memory.
Questions
Draw a PMOS and an XOR gate.
