Process
First, I talked with the recruiter just to gauge interest and discuss the job a little.
Then, there was a technical interview that was heavily based on my resume. Be prepared to discuss in-depth questions surrounding topics on your resume. I really enjoyed that format, as most of the questions were on topics I had a background in.
The third interview was with the team manager and was very similar to the second interview.
Questions
Describe some differences between CAN bus and PWM, and some of the advantages and disadvantages of each.
