I applied through university. I interviewed at NVIDIA in Jan 2017
Interview
2 back to back phone interviews. First interviewer asked a bunch of LL questions in addition to resume questions. Then he sprung a DP problem at me, which I wasn't expecting (it was for a systems software role). Second interviewer asked lots of OS questions + string manipulation questions. He was much easier.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Describe how a semaphore is implemented internally, describe some scheduling algorithms, what is virtual memory, what is the functions of an OS etc
Recruiter reached out to schedule. 2 interviews. Hiring manager, senior engineer. One after the other. Resume and technical questions. The role description said MS & PhD but I’m an undergrad
Hackerank, with 2 problems, not too hard not too easy but some niche knowledge was required, and then there was a multiple choice part which was much much harder, focused around OS
I had three rounds back-to-back with different team members, and they were pretty nice. I worked on paper and showed the interviewer what I drew. Interviews were for the summer internship only.
