Software Engineer Interview Experience - Taipei, Taiwan
Process
This was the Taiwan office, so their English was not that great. They called me, a graphic designer, via a recruiting firm, asking me for an interview to join their R&D department. I thought this was related to interaction design.
Apparently, they were looking for software engineers instead. Even though I explained myself, they made me go through a programming test nonetheless. I was able to answer some questions, as I do have a background in object-oriented programming and had learned some C++ back in college, but of course, my knowledge is nowhere near that of a software engineer.

Nvidia Work Experiences
- 3.0Good company with no performance reward systemSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeToronto, Ontario, CanadaFebruary 4, 2023Pros: Interesting technology. Good benefits ($6000 RSPP match, good insurance, 15% ESPP).Cons: The promotion system is broken. Don't join unless you have a good offer. It will be a few years before you are rewarded, no matter how well you perform or how well you try. WLB is what you choose. But even if you choose to work hard, there is no reward.
- 4.0Fast-paced, Career GrowthSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeSanta Clara, California, United StatesJanuary 28, 2015Pros: Variety of opportunities to improve your career. Salary matches performance.Cons: Everything goes fast, and documentation is not able to catch the pace.
- 5.0Hardcore, fast-paced culture and some very smart peopleSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeSanta Clara, California, United StatesSeptember 23, 2012Pros: Invests in top talent, clearly some incredibly smart people working here. Internal knowledge share presentations and recorded sessions; it's exciting to learn and be part of an industry leader in such cool technology. Leadership communication and alignment on company goals and strategy. It's motivating to contribute personal effort toward a strategy and technology I believe in, especially while profit sharing. Great cafeteria and outdoor seating. I've had no trouble getting vacation time or working around appointments.Cons: Pace and workload can bury someone who isn't well organized and able to context switch and pipeline well. Peer communication can be very honest and direct; maybe not a good fit for those sensitive to criticism.
