I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (New York, NY)
Interview
The interviewer started with basics: 'Walk me through what happens when you type ls -l'. After I explained the syscalls and path resolution, we dove into a server troubleshooting scenario with high CPU usage. They threw a vmstat output at me, asking about memory pressure signals. The final round was kernel-focused - we discussed device drivers and interrupt handling. Overall, very systems and debugging-heavy.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
We have a server with 16GB RAM and its response times are getting slower each day, despite having the same workload. Looking at 'free -m', we see high buffer/cache usage but low active memory usage. The swap space is barely touched. What's your diagnosis and how would you improve performance?
iMy Intel software intern interview experience was good and technical. The interviewer asked about programming languages, data structures, OOP concepts, DBMS, and some coding questions. They also discussed my projects, problem-solving skills, teamwork, and interest in software development and cloud technologies.
Primero tuve una entrevista con reclutamiento sobre mi perfil y experiencia. Después, una entrevista técnica con preguntas básicas de electrónica y resolución de problemas, enfocadas en conocimientos fundamentales y análisis.
I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Hillsboro, OR)
Interview
The final interview lasted for 1 hour 5 minutes. Two people interviewed me, and I was asked many questions. How the interview will go depends on your introduction and research experience.
