Meeting with HR, then a 30-minute presentation to a panel of engineers on a project I worked on, followed by 30 minutes of questions and answers. Pretty straightforward. I felt well-prepared for the presentation, they gave us some info beforehand on the type of info we should focus on.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions specific to your presentation, but usually questioning some of your design choices and reasonings.
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Rivian (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2023
Interview
Master different graph representations (adjacency list, adjacency matrix) and algorithms (Dijkstra's, Bellman-Ford, A* search algorithm). Understand how to solve complex problems involving graph traversals, shortest paths, and cycle detection.Go beyond binary trees to understand AVL trees, red-black trees, segment trees, and B-trees. Learn about tree traversals, balancing techniques, and applications in databases and filesystems.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Rivian (Normal, IL) in Apr 2021
Interview
I had two interviews for two different internships. One had me do a technical presentation and the other was very casual, a few questions. Both were incredibly nice, HR was very helpful.
