Software Engineer (Device Driver Development) Interview Experience - Chennai, Tamil Nadu
Process
I underwent two rounds of interviews. In the first, questions covered C fundamentals, RTOS, and projects listed on my resume. The second interview focused on C problems (DSA), OS concepts, and my projects.
After the interviews, the HR representative became unresponsive. I sent two follow-up emails and attempted to contact them directly, but they did not respond to my calls or emails. This is an unprofessional act from the HR representative. Even if I wasn't selected, a simple response would have been courteous and not a significant imposition.
Questions
Few problems from pointers, bitfields, and BST.
A computer has 128 KB RAM, and the process size is 256 KB. How will the OS run the process?
