I applied online. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA) in Dec 2025
Interview
The first round was behavioral with a resume technical deep dive. It was mostly to see if you were a "culture fit." Second round were entirely technical questions. For the Ignite Hardware Engineering internship, you'll get asked questions about simple digital logic design or operating systems, etc. It all depends on what technologies you say you are familiar with, so it would be advisable not to lie about what you know.
The interview process was professional and well-organized. It began with an initial HR screening call, followed by a technical interview with the hiring manager. The team was welcoming, and they provided clear information about the internship's goals and expectations. Communication was prompt throughout the entire process.

I have done only a screening round, and I have prepared all the DV topics, but they asked me coding questions instead. The questions are easy to moderate, like implement a function for randc in Python or System Verilog without using any built-in functions
