Firmware Engineer Interview Experience - Goleta, California

Process

Got asked to do an on-sight interview with panel of 5 firmware engineers after meeting a recruiter a week earlier.

The interviewers didn't seem like they had prepared anything and simply asked questions off the top of their heads.

Plenty of awkward silence while I waited for them to think of questions.

They had me do 2-page worksheet with simple waveform/timing questions.

Whole thing last a little over an hour.

One guy just sat there the whole time looking down.

Just seemed like a awkward group of guys in general.

I think it was clear by the end of the interview that it was not going to work out, but they took me out to lunch afterwards anyway, which was regrettable.
