Interviews are easy. Mostly they look for RCGs or candidates from service-based companies, as these companies cannot afford to match the CTC of individuals from AMD and Nvidia. The interviews cover different domains with easy to moderate questions.

I applied in the spring but received a call from the hiring manager at the start of fall. I had a phone interview with three people: the manager and two team members. Each interview was about half an hour long.

I was interviewed as an experienced candidate, and the interviewers were fully conscious of my experience level. At times, they were even surprised at the depth of understanding I have of various things.
