Process
The point of view questions for freshers were a bit challenging but solvable in the technical round. Even for freshers, basic system design knowledge is tested. Since it was my first interview, I found it a bit challenging as I gave the interview straight out of college.
Questions
Focused more on DSA and things mentioned in the resume.

Electronic Arts Work Experiences

Above average game studio
Software Engineer II • Former Employee
Los Angeles, California, United States
July 13, 2011
Pros: Great managers, opportunity to work on AAA products. Lots of interesting work and solid support systems.
Cons: It's easy to get lost in the masses and end up being treated like a dispensable commodity.
I once heard a Senior Development Director say something like the following: "Unreal Engineers are a dime a dozen."
What he meant was that qualified gaming engineers with Unreal experience were easy to find and hire. This wasn't supported by the amount of time and effort it took them to hire qualified Unreal engineers.
My impression was that he didn't see the value of the engineers already on staff; he saw them as a commodity to be bought and discarded when he no longer had a use for them.
