I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at NVIDIA in Oct 2020
Interview
I had 3 interviews with NVIDIA. One with a recruiter, one with a manager and one onsite.
All of the interviews went well except the onsite interview, which was possibly the worst interview I've had in my life. The onsite interview consisted of 3 interviews back to back which lasted ~2-3 hours. Here are the reasons why my onsite was terrible-
1. The first interviewer didn't turn his camera on AND he was recorded the call without asking for permission. I notice the call was being recorded at the end of the meeting. He may have been from a different team since he asked a ton of questions unrelated to the role. In short, that call didn't go well and was personally a huge red flag for me.
2. The seconded interviewer didn't show up :/ So I stayed on the call for an hour in an empty room. He didn't send an email/apology, which was another red flag and just unprofessional.
3. Last interviewer was HR and was okay.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA)
Interview
Interviewing itself was streamlined and well-structured with a mix of algorithm and optimization problems (applied for a machine learning-related role). I received an offer more than 2 months after my onsite.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Some questions on model architecture design and optimiaztion
The recruiter contacted me and asked me for my schedule, I gave the dates, she didn't schedule an interview, then she contacted me 2 weeks later for more dates, I gave them and there was silence, the same thing happened 4 more times until she didn't respond anymore, worst experience I've ever had with any company
