Some of my experiences as an EE in the US, right after finishing my masters:
>big telecom equipment company, like 3 rounds of interviews, process takes months, final interview has 5 phases with different people, coding tests, show me your projects, let's see what you understand after explaining you some technical stuff, and more>same company, apply for position where I'd basically have to do exactly the same stuff I did in a previous internship, get asked trivia questions in 1st round after hr screening, never got called again>big fintech big data company, like 2-3 rounds, final interview is 2 phases, mostly trivia and very basic technical questions like tell me some Unix shell commands, get inside info that I was going to get an offer, told that I'm going to have a final phone interview with the person who was going to be my manager instead, I got asked the same questions, I gave the same answers, this time it's a no ¯\_(?)_/¯>small AI startup for an internship before finishing my masters, single round, show me your projects, get an offerOnly experience after going back to Europe:
>big engineering firm, single interview, trivia questions and an English check, get an offer right awayWhen I say trivia I mean non-technical, soft skills related kind of stuff.
