Process
It was an on-site interview.
I was interviewed by five people from the team. The questions were pretty easy.
They were mostly open-ended questions. Each person interviewed me for 15 minutes.
Questions
One question was on KVL (Kirchhoff's Voltage Law) and the waveform of a buck converter. Noise analysis was also discussed.
I was asked if I knew Python.
