Process
Initially, I had two separate phone interviews discussing my background and experience. After I "passed" the phone interviews, they invited me to their campus for a full day of interviews. I had four one-on-one interviews lasting from 9 AM to 3 PM. Each interviewer was a different person on the team that I would be working with if I were hired.
Questions
A few circuit questions were asked, dealing with low-pass filters.
I was asked to solve one algebraic problem, dealing with fluid flow rates and pressures.
