I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Pittsburgh, PA) in Mar 2016
Interview
After I connected to a hiring manager at NVIDIA, the HR directly sent me his email address. I asked him I was currently looking for an internship opportunity and whether they had openings for software engineer intern or data scientist intern. He told me both and asked me to send my resume to his email address. I did so and soon received an interview appointment. My interviewer is a software engineer. There was only one round on my application.

Just some normal questions at first such as tell me about yourself and introduction to the projects I have finished. More than this, he also asked me how to implement/design a garbage collection in JAVA and only a small algorithm question about binary number operation.
Multiple steps, intro, team meet. Two coding sessions. Hard coding interview. Leet code style. Nice people. Took long time to schedule next. Felt that I was appreciated. Remote, people different parts over world.
