The initial screening interview was facilitated via Zoom. They started by giving me a summary of the team they are a part of. Furthermore, they asked about the bullets on my resume. They also asked me to provide detail about any academic projects and relevant experience.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Intuitive (Sunnyvale, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
1 hour screener of background and some technical questions of mechanical engineering fundamentals, followed by multiple individual interviews (about 30-45min each) with members of the team. Some friends of mine also had a quick screener phone call with the recruiter before those 2 rounds of interviews.
