Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: Written round separate for Hardware and Software profiles for an hour each. You could write only one. Maybe around 100 from EC/EE attended the test as there was a pointer cutoff of 8.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: 8 people selected from the Hardware profile.
General Tips: The overall experience was rewarding at the end of it, but it was an exhausting process. All the waiting about for your interviews and results will drain your mental energy. I had a four hour wait in the TNP for my name to be called for the tech interview (I was the last to be interviewed). Even though it helps that you can ask from the previous candidates about what transpired in their interview, the wait can get really tiring. Also, be sure that as the afternoon progresses, even the panelists get tired of successive interviews, so there is an added challenge to make sure to be noticed. The one advantage of late Tech and HR rounds was that I had to wait for a very less time for the results. But at last after getting the offer, nothing matters much.
For the test, there will be a variety of questions over the entire scope of digital electronics. Expect STA, CMOS Implementation, Comp. Arch. basics, Memory models (we had a cache latency question), sequential circuits and synchronization, and even a question on C coding. So go into the test with a thorough revision of the 4 courses: DSD, MP, VLSID and DECA. The C question will be a comparatively easy one.
For the technical interview, "We've already tested your basic technical skills in the test. We want to know more about what you've worked on." was the first statement from the interviewer. So be prepared to explain any of your projects listed in your resume in detail. It helps if you have some project related to Computer Architecture to speak on. Of course there will be one or two technical questions after to probe the depth of your knowledge.
Skill Tips: 1) No aptitude preparation at all. This wan't required also as nVIDIA is a core Electronics company.
2) Preparation for written test : Review of all digital electronics and related courses taken during three years of ECE (VLSID, DSD, MP, DECA).
3) Nothing of analog electronics or linear systems asked in the test. Exclude such preparation if you want to write the nVIDIA Hardware test.
4) Have at least one Computer Architecture related project in your resume and be ready to speak on it.
5) Knowledge of VHDL/Verilog is a huge plus.

General Tips: Resume should be true not enticing. A catchy project title may get you an interview but the basics will get you the job. Good communication skills never desert you in times of need unlike your technical skills. Hone it and you'll go places.
It was pretty standard according to me. Very helpful panel. Again speaking well helps.
Skill Tips: Basic aptitude Club activities sufficed for me. Lot of questions on your projects.
Interest in programming helps, be it hardware programming like microcontroller projects or the software projects.

4 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: The selection procedure involved one round of written mcq test followed by one round of technical interview and finally one HR interview.
MCQ test was mostly normal aptitude questions and few electronics and c aptitude.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: For the technical interview most of the students were asked mainly on bit operations and manipulations. For me since i told them i am interested in digital electronics he started with basic digital electronics questions on muxes, nand, flip flops and then he moved to bit questions and finally ended up asking the mathematical proof for a number being divisible by 3.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: Students were shortlisted right after their tech interviews and those who were through were given a questionnaire with usual HR questions like why we should hire you, some ideas you have championed, and so on. HR will then go through your answers and then you will be called for your final interview on how interested are you, about your higher studies plan and few questions based on how you answered the questionnaire.
Tips: Both interviewers are comforting and keep us relaxed. For the HR interview just be yourself and be honest.
General Tips: Have an idea on which field you want to work on like analog,digital design, vlsi etc.
Be thorough with the concepts of whatever interests you have. It really helps sometimes when they know you are good at what you know even though the profile might not be exactly same as your field.
Start your apti preps early so when a company comes you can prepare for its profile. And most importantly brush up your DSA and coding skills. Even after 3 years in EC , DSA and c apti is what gets you through the first round of tests. And Always try to attend only the companies you are comfortable with. Be good with your aptitude and also c aptitude as i was told during my interview i had to improve c skills. If you have done embedded course be thorough with your projects and embedded basics (as it might be of their interest). Also be prepared with digital electronics and digital design. (not sure how much helpful it will be but be prepared).
It was my second time having interview and was far better than my first one. Both technical and HR interviews were comforting and relaxed. Except for a little delay in starting interviews as per allotted time there wasn't any issues with my placement process.
Skill Tips: As a matter of fact i had prepared a lot of digital electronics(Anand kumar, Wakerly, and indiabix for online ques) and digital system design (Roth) expecting lot of questions from those.
For the aptitude preps R S Aggarwal is really helpful and a good book to start with. If you find the questions to be easy you can also go through book by Arun sharma.
For c concepts narasimha karumanchi(for linked list, DSA, recursion etc) .

4 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: The selections process started with a presentation by the company where they introduced you to the environment of the company. It was followed by a written subjective test which basically tested your programming skills. Questions were based on arrays, classes and OOP concepts. Last part of the paper was an essay asking about the city you live. Total 3 questions were asked which had to answered in 25 minutes time. Total no. of students appeared for the test was around 30.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: After the test only 5 students were shortlisted for interview. Interview for each candidate began with a technical round where they asked us to pick one programming language we are comfortable with. I picked C++. They asked me very basic concepts example Function overloading, Operator overloading, 2-D array concepts other OOP concepts.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: It went very smooth for me. They asked me what I know about the company. Though i couldn't remembered much I told them two points and then smiled. Then they asked me to tell me about myself and our NITK campus. I answered that aptly. Then they started asking serious questions i.e. if I want to go for higher studies, why am I not joining ARMY (I told them my father is in armed forces). Then they asked me if I want to work in Chennai or Bangalore, I told them Bangalore and also the reason behind it. After that, it was a casual interaction and I became quite sure about my selection.
General Tips: I think one thing which matters the most is your self-confidence. Hard-work and dedication are very important of-course but it is your confidence that separates you from other individuals. Also for most of the interviews they do not ask very big concepts, they will assess you on basic concepts, how much you know about the subject. So, be it any language, have your basic concept clear first and while giving interviews speak confidently.
This was my first campus interview I got selected and I cleared it. So yes, I was in a little shock and surprise to clear the interview.
Also one thing I forgot to mention was that the pointer cut-off for this company was 7.5 while I had only 7.11. Still I got selected. It does not matters much how much pointer you have. What matters at last is how much thorough you are with the subject. Well till morning I was not even sure if I am sitting for this company and by I got placed.
Skill Tips: Though there are huge resources of materials lying online and market, don’t run in all directions. Choose one book and an online source and start preparing it.
In my case I studied Sumita Arora for C++ and it proved to be quite beneficial for me. Also solve aptitude questions for programming available online like indiabix.com. It provides a lot of help in understanding and applying your concepts and also for time limit.
For aptitude question the best book available is "Quantitative aptitude by Arun Sharma".
For C++ language focus mainly on OOPS concepts, its features and basic building blocks like arrays, pointers etc.

3 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: It was allowed for all the students even thought after keeping the cut off as 6.5. There was a less turnout to the company. There was an aptitude test for ece/eee ( there was java test for cse/mca). There was sectional cutoff. For aptitude they gave 50 questions for 1:10 min. The cutoff is 60% in aptitude. It is quite easier and a little grip on aptitude will do the trick (aptitude includes verbal too). There was only 7 students who got shortlisted from ece/eee.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: The main criteria for this company is your 10th and 12th maths marks. They asked me to explain my summer and final year project. Some basic HR questions like What motivates you, How do u see yourself in this company. It is so simple that you need not fear at all.
General Tips: If your 10th and 12th standard maths grades are superb then you are almost in to the company. They wont ask anything on core and software. They just ask projects. Its the simplest interview i have ever faced. So keep calm and be confident.
The overall experience was quite easy. It selection process started at 11am and i got offer at 4 pm. The interviewer was friendly.
Skill Tips: It was not aiming at all for this company. A firm grip on aptitude skills is enough if you are from ece/eee. If you are from cse/mca your java skills should be good to cross the cutoff. Just practice aptitude from any book you find.
Don't panic at all. As this was my 7th interview i was not at all nervous. Every one in the campus will get placed for sure. Just wait for the time to come. Keep preparing for the companies daily and always have a good grip on your projects. It will be asked in every company all most.

College Name: NIT Surathkal
Experience: It was allowed for all the students even thought after keeping the cut off as 6.5. There was a less turnout to the company. There was an aptitude test for ece/eee ( there was java test for cse/mca). There was sectional cutoff. For aptitude they gave 50 questions for 1:10 min. The cutoff is 60% in aptitude. It is quite easier and a little grip on aptitude will do the trick (aptitude includes verbal too). There was only 7 students who got shortlisted from ece/eee.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: The main criteria for this company is your 10th and 12th maths marks. They asked me to explain my summer and final year project. Some basic HR questions like What motivates you, How do u see yourself in this company. It is so simple that you need not fear at all.
General Tips: If your 10th and 12th standard maths grades are superb then you are almost in to the company. They wont ask anything on core and software. They just ask projects. Its the simplest interview i have ever faced. So keep calm and be confident.
