Software/Firmware Engineer Interview Experience
Process
The interview process was pretty standard.
There was a phone screen and then an on-site interview.
The on-site interview was with the HR manager, followed by an hour-long technical interview with three people: a manager and two potential technical co-workers.
The questions were pretty standard programming questions, with no big surprises.
Questions
The one surprising question had to do with how I handled stress, as the work environment can be stressful at times.
