I applied online and was contacted by a recruiter two weeks later to schedule a phone screen.

I had a phone screen with an engineer, which went well. One week later, I had a second phone screen with the hiring manager on a Friday. I asked if we could expedite the interview process, and they were able to schedule me for an on-site interview the following Wednesday. I received a decision about two weeks later.

Throughout the interview process, I was treated very well. The questions covered technical, leadership, communication, and creative thinking aspects.

Everything discussed during the interview process was highly relevant to my background, the team, and the work I would be doing.

Unlike many other interviews I recently went through, Nvidia treated me like a person. I felt a high level of mutual respect and trust. The general process felt smoother and more natural than the rigid series of questions I encountered at other big companies.

I was left with a very good understanding of the role, the requirements, what they were looking for, and what life would be like at the company. This left me feeling positive about the possibility of working there.

They asked me about my background, projects I have done, and problems I have encountered.

They asked me how I would approach a few different problems (real problems I'd likely face in the job). They were mostly interested in my problem-solving approach, breadth of knowledge, and some level of depth.

They asked me some CS fundamentals questions.

They asked me some networking fundamentals questions (networking, web, etc.).

They asked me some infrastructure questions (DevOps, Docker, etc.).

Everything was relevant to the role, my background, or something I should have reasonably known.
