I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Dolby in Feb 2023
Interview
Total of 2 interviews, one HR and the other with team leaders. The QR was a typical one.
On the main interview there was no strict technical questions. Just conceptual, cultural and style of work questions + description of previous experiences. Smooth and pleasant but it probably varies dependant of the team.

I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Dolby (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2025
Interview
Process was easy. University recruiter reached out to schedule interviews. Had phone screen, hiring manager interview, and interview with team. They said they would get back with decisions the week after the last interview. HR was extremely disorganized and forgot to send a decision. After I reminded them about where I stood in the process, I received an unprofessional email.
