Hardware Applications Engineer Interview Experience - San Diego, California
Process
The interview process is long and somewhat intense. It is not overtly brutal, but it does require 5-6 hours and, in my case, 5 individual MS Teams meetings throughout one full workday.
With each meeting lasting between 30 and 45 minutes, the interview should be allotted for as a whole day.
The administration of each meeting was at the discretion of each interviewer and varied from technical questions to logic-based riddles to personal, logistical, and experience-based questions.
