I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NVIDIA in Oct 2021
Interview
On online assessment. Two phone interviews, one focusing on concepts and the other on coding. Interviewed for systems positions so coding is done in C, and concept questions focused on operating systems, architecture, and parallel programming frameworks.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: What are the differences and similarities between PThreads and OpenMP?
Q: What hardware and software procedures are involved when the CPU issues a read/store command?
Q: What is DMA and what is it used for?
Q: Write code in C that generates a bitmask covering a given range.
A very nice team and a positive interview experience. The technical assessment uses hackerrank and is a live editor where they can see what you're typing and hidden test cases.
