      Principal Field Applications Engineer Interview

      Jan 3, 2024
      Anonymous employee
      Austin, TX
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Astera Labs (Austin, TX) in Nov 2022

      Interview

      Interview process is staged. As you progress the levels it becomes more detailed. I'd say difficult but I don't particularly find interviews difficult. After initial screening there may be a group interview. I did mine via Zoom and it went well.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Both highlights and issued that I had to face when dealing with customers. My role is very customer facing and being able to deal with problems has to be one of the skills I have.
