One loop interview - only 45 minutes long 😬
I'm actually really scared by this. It's just 45 minutes long and only one loop. This is for a Systems Software Engineer Intern at Nvidia. My Amazon loops were incredibly intense, 1 hour grilling sessions. Even 1 hour didn't always feel like enough time. How am I supposed to do well in just 45 minutes? I'm scared. TC: 30k
Because Nvidia doesn’t ask LP questions? 45min is as normal as 1h.
It's an internship, bro. Nobody gives a shit
I spoke with one of the C-suites of a late stage startup (unicorn) for 30 min. We hit it off. It’s plenty of time to make a good impression. Just don’t cram in too much information. Keep it to highlights only (unless they want to dig).
It's possible they might go with the flow and extend it to the hour mark.
Do you think it's a bad idea to do this interview if the role doesn't align well? I don't want to jeopardize my chances at the roles that I'm more interested in and I feel very unprepared for this one.
Don't think your performance in this should matter to the other ones. For context, I failed an onsite with NV for team A. However, I cleared team B a month later (of course I prepared more in that month).
It’s an internship, what’s the worst that can happen?
I don't get it and have to spend the summer making poverty wages 😭
I mean if they give you an offer it would be same as any other offer. May wanna have two offers just in case?
