I applied online. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Ra`ananna) in Jul 2026
Interview
the interview was 90 minutes, first part introduction, second part easy leetcode (perfect square, compressed string), last part questions about git, docker,jenkins and stuff like this. some of the questions at the last part felt non relevant like what is the internal architecture of git, how does each commit works...
I applied online. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Jan 2026
Interview
Asked me about projects I did, and then they started to ask about DevOps, Jenkins, Docker, and everything else they wanted to make sure I know. After an hour they thanked me and told me HR would contact me .
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Yoqne`am) in Apr 2025
Interview
was initially contacted by HR through LinkedIn and had a 30-minute phone call with the team leader, who explained the role and asked about my background and experience.
Later, I had a 2-hour Zoom interview with two team members (one was a solutions architect and the other a senior team member). The discussion covered topics such as networking, Linux, Kubernetes, Python, and SQL. I was also asked to complete a Python exercise on HackerRank.
Overall, the process was smooth and professional, and the interviewers were pleasant to speak with. The only downside was that after the rejection, I did not receive any feedback.
