Senior Systems Software Engineer Interview Experience
Process
The interview spanned a couple of days, with 2-3 people conducting 45-minute slots per day.
It was entirely over the phone, as the interviewers were spread across many different offices.
The people seemed super nice, and the company genuinely appears to be growing.
I believe there are many opportunities here, and most of the people who interviewed me had been at Nvidia for 5, 7, or even 12 years.
It seems they truly take care of their employees.
