Firmware Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, Heredia
Process
They contacted me by message and then interviewed me without prior notice, without me having applied for a "student worker" position.
Two months later, they sent me a link to register as an "intern at Intel". I registered, and the next day they called me. A week later, they had me take another interview.
All interviews are in English with natives from India.
Questions
They were very general, but they had to do with MATLAB, Verilog, assembly, and computer architecture.
