      Linux Kernel Engineer Interview

      17 Jul 2009
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Thales in Jul 2009

      Interview

      The job was optimising Ethernet and USB drivers on Lynux Works operating systems. The employer was well prepared in conducting the interview. They knew exactly what skills they wanted. I did not have Ethernet or USB driver experience. Although I have plenty of other experience in Linux Kernel development. The current client with global recession is possibly making employers to picky due the perception of lots of highly skilled engineers been available. Needles to say I was not offered this contract position

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Reviewing CV and asking question regarding relevant experience.
      Answer question

      Question 2
