Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto 2 giorni. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso NVIDIA (Ahmedabad) nel mese di ago 2017
Colloquio
Written test was followed by an interview. Basic electronics, VLSI and Digital electronics questions were asked.
The panel was of three people:
Mr. M (Director)
Mr. P (HR)
Mr. B (Manager)
Of these, M and P sat in one room (let's call it room-1) and interviewed half of the students while B (room-2) was in another room and interviewed the remaining half. The duration of interview in both the rooms was almost same, ranging from 35 to 40 minutes. After the interview, candidates had to wait in another room, which did not let the remaining candidates interact with them.The pattern of questions was, however, quite different, which is described below.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
Q: You have two diodes, how do you design AND & OR gate using those?
- What do you understand by fan-out? * (Discussion of fan-out went on for at least 15-20 minutes. The questions that followed were based on the replies that I gave. It's quite similar to a viva you see!)
- On what parameters does fan-out depend? Does it only depend on current?
- Can you relate fan-out with input impedance/ capacitance?
- Do you choose FET over BJT for the reason that it has higher input impedance or on basis of some other parameter and input impedance of FET just happens to be high?
- Does fan-out depend on frequency?
- If frequency is kept same and the input capacitance is varied, what effect would you see on the circuit?
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA) nel mese di feb 2026
Colloquio
Two hour-long interviews. Both follow the same format: no behavioral questions just technical. Interviewers looked at my resume and asked me to describe a technical project. In the second round, interviewer also drew a circuit and gave a problem to solve. Very fair and doable if you revise analog circuitry content.

Domanda 1
What is a diode? What are the gates of a transistor? Calculate the current going through this resistor (circuit had a transistor and op-amp).
Phone interview with HR first, received some more details about this role. Moved to the next phase which was an online test. Unfortunately, stopped at this stage, didn't go further.
Ho presentato la mia candidatura di persona. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso NVIDIA (Taipei) nel mese di mar 2024
Colloquio
It was a System Design Engineer Interview for the Signal Integrity and Power Integrity role. Questions were from CMOS Circuit design, RLC Circuit design, nmos filter questions, PCB design techniques-size, microvias design question for 80 ohm impedance of PCB
