Process

For the FPGA Solutions group.

Two interviews were conducted.

  • The first consisted of two 30-minute interviews. I believe I messed up the first question, but I did very well on the second, which is why I advanced to the second round.
  • The second interview was a series of six 30-minute interviews with a 15-minute break halfway through.

I answered all the coding questions correctly. However, the last interviewer confused me. He was discussing FPGAs, but he didn't provide enough context for me to fully understand. I probably should have asked him to clarify, and that is likely why I didn't get the job. I was extremely disappointed when I heard the news, but life goes on.
