Systems Interview Questions

52,676 systems interview questions shared by candidates

They provided a power point slide and asked candidates to produce a 20 min electronic presentation on how to solve a specific change management problem. Not about themselves, their skills or attributes. The whole process felt to me that it was one sided, as if the engagement may have been more about gather potential approaches from a range of candidates without any mutual investment or engagement in return. It felt all about the problem, nothing about the candidates experience.

The questions spans both hardware and software topics. Each interviewer asked about a topic that they are strong in: C, C++, Python, ASIC designs, system architecture and timing analysis. Most engineers would be strong in either software or hardware design. Luckily I have done both and I have been a System Engineer for a while and was exposed to all of those topics.
