Positive experience

Average interview

Application

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Vāranāsi) in Dec 2016

Interview

Nvidia came to our campus on 30th Nov for test and Dec 1st for Interview. Hiring process was done in two steps. First round was a descriptive test (1 hr) covering Digital Design, Cache concepts, CMOS properties, fault detection etc. Paper was pretty much easy, but a bit lengthy.

Interview questions [1]

Question 1

Panel was of 3 members and each candidate is interviewed for 40-50 min. First they asked about area of interest. When I answered Architecture, three of them asked basic questions on Cache, PIC, DMA, Fault Detection etc.. One of them asked if given a chance, which question in the paper would you attempt ? I corrected my mistake in fault detection

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA) in Dec 2014

Interview

Was contacted by HR on LinkedIn. This was followed by two phone interviews. Neither of the phone interviews were technical. Most questions were about my resume and projects I had worked on. Finally, I was invited to an on-site. Again, all except one asked questions about my resume. Lunch was great!

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA) in Apr 2016

Interview

2 phone screens followed by an onsite. Met with multiple people from the team, management and also people from teams you would interact with. Everyone seemed stuck up on culture. Even though i answered all the questions- technical and behavioral they kept coming back to how they need to find someone who would fit their culture.
