I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
Applied, contacted by a very nice recruiter then was scheduled for an interview. I did not know at the time it was going to be a live-coding interview.
The interviewer was obnoxious and condescending. He kept interrupting me and telling me what to do when I was already doing it and wouldn't let me test lines of code when I was writing/questioned and huffed and puffed me when I attempted. He would have been the manager. I'm glad that bullet was dodged as working for him would have been a nightmare! This gave me a sneak peek into the culture and after that experience, I'm never applying again and have told friends and family to steer clear.

They asked to talk about some projects I worked on and then also asked two leetcode questions. I answered both questions correctly, although the second one I answered more slowly and the code was not organized but the solution was correct.
