I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA) in Jul 2011
Interview
I had very high recommendations for several highly placed employees (dir, vp). Took forever to get anyone to even call back. Then they scheduled the interview on the one day I explicitly said I could not be there. Had to reschedule for 2 weeks later.
While walking to the interview room we ran into another former colleague, he gave an unprompted glowing review.
None of the 3 Interviewers seem to have read my resume. I was asked simple questions, not something you would ask someone with 20 years experience who has run 10 million dollar product lines. Yes the job was a step down, but I wanted to get into the company first, then move later. The interview with the hiring manager felt like he was afraid I would take his job.
I wasn't even given the courtesy of a call to say "no". I had to find out from my referrals.
I got another interview request from a different group later on. But the VP was too busy to find a date to interview, despite being my being very open on time and place.
In general I found the whole process very unprofessional. My perception is that they want to drive people as hard as they can, and pay as little as possible.

Question 1
Paraphrasing - This is a new line of products in a new market. We need to come up with a new brand identity for this, but not conflict with the other products we sell. And not make it look like we are lessening our commitment to this other product line, even thought his will replace it eventually. By the way, there's no marketing budget. How would you do that?

Interview
I had a phone interview arranged through a recruiter at linkedlin. I had a phone interview with a member from the tegra moblie platform team and though he was looking for people with experience on performance tuning ( which i did not have), he liked my resume and forwarded to another team member.
Then i had another interview and the interviewer was very nice and friendly. He gave me a brief description of his work at Nvidia for about 15 mins. Then he head on to my resume and asked a couple of questions regarding a graphics project that i had built. Then he asked me 2 problems and my interview was over.

Interview
I got to know about the position through one of my friend, whom have got an invite from job portal. However since the profile looked interesting i applied to the position. Got a call from the manager under whom the position is held vacant, which was a technical telephonic round. Attended the telephonic round and clearly responded to the queries and also had my concerns clarified during the call. As the manager is satisfied with the conversation we had he pushed the process to the one more level of technical round with Director Finance, which happened 3 weeks after the telecon. During the second & final round got an opportunity to interact with finance head and i demonstrated my career objectives, relevance of the position being offered and connected my understanding with my requirements. Gained understanding on company's operations durint the discussion. Finance head reflected his satisfaction at the end of conversation. Got the offer call within 3 working days and negotiation of package went for one more working day.
On overall process went very smoothly.
