I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Rivian in Mar 2022
Interview
One 2-hour interview that included behaviorals and small technical questions (resume-based, not Leetcode, no live coding)
They seemed to really emphasize team fit and past projects
Smooth process, had to reschedule my interview and they were accommodating and fast
I applied online. I interviewed at Rivian (Irvine, CA) in Apr 2026
Interview
The screening was chill and just asked about projects on my resume. The first interview asked C questions about my project and also high voltage experience. A few technical questions were asked but nothing very complicated.
Applied online. Recruiter reached out with a time window for three back-to-back team-based interviews, all scheduled closely together to assess fit and collaboration with different team members. Nice people overall.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Rivian in Apr 2025
Interview
The interview process consists of a 15 minute recruiter phone call, 1 hour behavioral interview, then a 1 hour technical interview where you answer 1-2 questions depending how fast you get the first one done.
