Process
The interviewer reviewed my resume. For some of the technologies I listed, such as Qt, they asked questions regarding possible implementations.
Overall, there weren't many more hardware-related questions asked, mostly because I was doing software automation for the hardware team.

Excellent learning experience as a hardware intern
Hardware Intern • Former Employee
Santa Clara, California, United States
October 17, 2012
Pros: In the GPU group, you will learn a lot from the best in the industry.
Of course, you are working for the leader in graphics technologies, involved with exciting products, so that's a big plus.
They put me in a position to handle plenty of responsibility and also did a lot of design work instead of stereotypical intern work.
My group was very friendly and helpful, and even held some small outings together.
Many events and free swag for interns, but don't expect it to be a Google experience.
Cons: The initial learning curve is steep. There's a lot of information on the intranet to slough through.
High workload. Managers tell interns not to do overtime, but some of us end up staying an extra unpaid hour or two to meet goals and expectations.
Lack of perks for permanent employees.
