Embedded Software Engineer Interview Experience - Hyderābād, India
Process
-
Written Aptitude, English, Analytical, Tech (C, C++, DS, Networking, Device Drivers, Linux Kernels). From around 60+ members, they shortlisted 7 members.
-
Technical Basics of C and DS, questions from storage classes, structure, programs from strings, and projects. It was hardly within 30 minutes. We were waiting for more than 3 weeks for the result. But after 3 weeks, they said no one qualified.
-
HR It looks like they came for time pass. Some guys attended HR before Technical because HR was free. After 2 guys, they stopped the interview process and replied that they don't have time to catch a flight and will declare the result within a week. Total time waste.
Questions
Basic C questions like storage classes, structures, and programs related to strings.

- 2.0Stable But Stagnant Braindead JobEmbedded Software Engineer • Former EmployeeBurnaby, British Columbia, CanadaSeptember 6, 2025Pros: WLB, no PIP, no layoff. If you just want a place to retire and a stable, "braindead" job working on business logic that means nothing to you, this is a good fit.Cons: Low pay, slow promo, no growth. There are some especially incompetent managers/directors here. Who came to Canada in the early 2000s and pretty much stay here forever, and just seem to be out of touch with pretty much everything. You are literally wasting your life here. Any self-respecting, intelligent, or aspirational individual would not last long here.
