Process
Pretty standard. It started with a phone screen, followed by a virtual on-site where I met with 5-6 different interviewers. After receiving an offer, I spoke with some more high-level people to get an overview of the business case and the company's high-level goals.
Questions
General robotics questions, coding, and some deeper, role-specific questions.
