Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Anduril (Costa Mesa, CA) nel mese di mar 2024
Colloquio
3 rounds of interviews:
Began with recruiter phone call to see if my resume met qualifications.
Second interview is with a "manager" or lead on electrical team to further go over resume and get more insight on your technical experience.
Third round is supposed to be 4 interviews on-site taking up 4 hours of your day and focuses on technical skills.
I only went up to the second round with a "manager" who was clearly not experienced as a manager and clearly seemed like someone who has not worked in defense before. He did not introduce himself, asked very interrogative questions about my work to try get as much detail as possible (I work in defense on classified/proprietary info so digging for information like that is a big red flag), and did not ask any behavioral questions that a manager normally would. He seemed like a competent and intelligent engineer but clearly not used to defense or a managerial role.
Additionally, although they listed a general role with general requirements, they were specifically looking for someone specialized in batteries, HV systems, and PCB design for this particular project. They should have listed their opening as a battery engineer.

Domanda 1
Talk about x, y, z on your resume in technical detail.
Recruiter Screening (first interview round) where they asked me some basic questions about myself and resume, then followed up at the end with some simple technical questions. I think I didn't do a great job explaining myself and my background which is why I didn't move on past this, but I got the technical questions right.

The interview began with a typical HR screening that talked about the company and their mission, along with the responsibilities of the role. The second interview is a 45 minute technical interview with an electrical engineer.

Domanda 1
Voltage divider, diode drop, RC circuit analysis. The second round technical interview focused on synchronized buck converter and its primary function/operation. Along with a focus on trace capacitance, resistance, and inductance concepts that you should be familiar with when designing a PCB. Additionally, make sure you understand how to choose decoupling capacitors sizing and their function in buck/boost converter IC's.

Colloquio
Went through the first 2 rounds of interviews. First round was with an HR person asking basic questions about me and my experiences, then I had 3 simple EE questions. The second round was all technical questions and got asked about some of my project and had to explain them in detail.
