I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Garmin in Sep 2018
Interview
Met with recruiters at a Univeristy career fair and had an on campus interview scheduled the next day. They started with basic behavioral questions and then they asked basic C++ questions and a few multithreading questions. A simple write out code question as well. My interviewers (2 of them) were extremely friendly and the process was one of the most enjoyable I’ve had despite not getting to move forward in the process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What are the min and max values for a 6 bit unsigned int?
You first speak to hr, talk about your resume and experience, normal stuff. The technical started off with basic hr questions and a bit about your resume and experience. Then began to ask basic OOP concepts like Polymorphism, got asked whats difference between pass by reference and pass by value, stuff like that. Then a few coding questions in python.
It was a straight forward interview process, discussed my previous experience, and some general technical questions, and did a programming exercise in a video interview.
A SQL problem and a DSA problem.
I applied online. I interviewed at Garmin (Yarmouth, ME) in Jan 2026
Interview
HR screening was pretty basic. Technical interview was done remotely. There were two people on the call beside myself. Questions were all technical and didn't bleed into any behavioral questions or assessments.
