T.I. came to our campus for campus recruitment.

First round was a computer assessment. I had applied for the Digital and Embedded roles.

The test had 3 sections for me:

• Aptitude - 20 questions
• Digital - 20 questions
• Embedded - 10 questions

Digital was mainly about gate simplification questions and some delay time related questions for a given digital circuit. Embedded role had only 10 questions, and it was related to C, cache mapping, and semaphores, and deadlock conditions.

I was selected for the Embedded role interview but later got rejected in the interview.

In the interview, there were 2 people. It was online, and both of them had their cameras off, so I could see only myself and 2 names on the computer screen.

The first interviewer asked me questions on C and asked me to write some basic programs. He also asked me what happens when a computer boots up. I think I did well here.

In the middle of the interview, the second guy came and started asking me many questions related to my core B.Tech ECE, like signal processing. He asked me about the difference between Fourier and Laplace transforms, some DFT and FFT related questions, then he asked me some practical questions based on Nyquist theorem. Then he asked some questions on Gaussian noise and so many others.

As I didn't prepare for those questions and as it was very much unrelated to the job role, I couldn't perform well there.
