      Senior Software Engineer, Simulation Interview

      10 Oct 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Rivian in July 2021

      Interview

      A chat with a recruiter, a quick phone screen with the hiring manager, and a virtual on-site consisting of some technical problem solving. The on-site was two coding rounds, a physics round, and a behavioral round. The coding rounds were very easy, and were not leetcode problems, but more so problems related to the role I was applying for. Overall a very easy interview, but the offer was not very good, about half what I was able to get for a similar role in SF Bay.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      A simple class design problem involving how to simulate the operation of a truck, and a very easy question of designing a test case problem. The physics portion was just a very high level discussion.
