I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at NVIDIA (San Jose, CA) in May 2016
Interview
After a few calls with the hiring manager, I eventually had a number of phone interviews with other people in the organization - other Solutions Architects, VPs of Sales, and executive staff. Interviews ranged from technical to behavioral but were generally informal.
All interviews were scheduled via a scheduling person I didn't deal with otherwise (but seemed to be involved in HR paperwork and similar functions).
After the interview process, a wrap-up call with the hiring manager took place, followed by a discussion with HR.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given a set of components, what would you do with them to build a system? (The question was purposely vague, so it took awhile to eventually narrow down what the interviewer was trying to get.)
L'objectif est de passer devant différents membres de la futur équipe afin d'évaluer les compétences techniques ainsi que le futur relationnel avec l'équipe. Plusieurs entretiens techniques sont attendus avec différentes séniorités
Interview with HM, then with SA team member. Interview with HM went well. Then I waited >1 month for the SA team member to come back from holidays. The day of that 2nd interview, the interviewer didn't show up and I contacted the recruiter. The interviewed joined 50 minutes late and had a 10 minute chat about the role, where he didn't ask me any questions. Result? Rejection.
Difficult interview
Application
I interviewed at NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA)
Interview
Was asked many AI-related questions. It is clear NVIDIA has a focus on AI competency, even if you aren’t working within an AI-related role. Overall, a challenging interview. Passion is a must.
