Process
I applied online.
HR contact followed by OA. Two interview rounds: resume and technical. Scheduling and timing were not very professional, however dates may have been an issue, as both interviews began late and had multiple no-show appointments. Questions and noted study topics were not followed in the technical questions, and the overall process was not very pleasant.
Questions
Difference between instruction sets, e.g., x86 or Arm, and impacts on efficiency between CISC and RISC?
