Embedded Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Diego, California
Process
Applied online and was contacted by HR for a phone interview. The phone interview went smoothly, covering basic questions on Wireless Comm, Networking, and a lot on OS and C.
An onsite hiring event followed. I had four technical interviews and one HR interview. Most of the interviewers were relaxed, and it was a pleasant experience.
There were many questions on OS/RTOS, including scheduling, deadlocks, and critical sections. A linked list coding question was asked, along with some other array manipulation and rearranging coding questions.
Bottom line: Know your OS and practice your coding.
Questions
Nothing out of the ordinary.
