Process

I found NVIDIA at my university's career fair. I spoke with them about summer internships, and they gave me a quiz for the hardware engineering position.

Two weeks later, I received an email for a phone interview. I had to complete three of those.

Overall, the interviewers were all nice, relaxed, and seemed smart. It sounds like an awesome place to work.

The questions were straightforward, covering topics such as:

  • Timing analysis
  • Designing with logic gates and multiplexers
  • State machines
  • Low-level coding

Questions
