I was interviewed in Aug 2017.

Interview Questionnaire 

10 Questions

  • Q1. A transfer function H(Z) in the form of a/b was given. I was asked to implement the block diagram for the given transfer function.
  • Ans. 

    The question asks to implement a block diagram for a given transfer function in the form of a/b.

    • Identify the numerator and denominator polynomials of the transfer function

    • Draw blocks for each polynomial term, representing multiplication and addition operations

    • Connect the blocks according to the transfer function equation

    • Include any necessary delays or feedback loops

    • Label the inputs and outputs of the block diagram

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. H(Z)=1/(1-Z^(-1)). Is the system with the given transfer function stable?
  • Ans. 

    No

    • The system is not stable because the transfer function has a pole at z = 1

    • A stable system should have all poles inside the unit circle in the z-plane

    • In this case, the pole at z = 1 lies on the unit circle, making the system marginally stable

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. What does Z^(-1) system represent? (Answer- It's a delay)
  • Q4. What are IIR and FIR filters?
  • Ans. 

    IIR and FIR filters are two types of digital filters used in signal processing.

    • IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) filters use feedback to create a response to an input signal.

    • FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filters only use feedforward and have a finite duration of response.

    • IIR filters can be implemented with fewer coefficients but may be less stable than FIR filters.

    • FIR filters have linear phase response and are generally ...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q5. State the sampling Theorem? Is it better to have a the sampling frequency slightly more than twice the bandwidth? Why?
  • Ans. 

    The sampling theorem states that a signal must be sampled at a rate at least twice its bandwidth to avoid aliasing.

    • The sampling theorem is also known as the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem.

    • Sampling at a rate slightly more than twice the bandwidth ensures that all the information in the signal is captured without distortion.

    • If the sampling frequency is too low, aliasing can occur, where high-frequency components are in...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q6. What is the difference between DTFT and DFT?
  • Ans. 

    DTFT is a continuous function that represents the frequency content of a discrete-time signal, while DFT is a discrete function that represents the frequency content of a finite-length sequence.

    • DTFT is defined for both finite and infinite-length signals, while DFT is only defined for finite-length sequences.

    • DTFT is a continuous function in frequency domain, while DFT is a discrete function in frequency domain.

    • DTFT prov...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q7. A sequence x[n] was given. Find y[n] if H(Z)=1-Z^(-4)
  • Ans. 

    The output sequence y[n] can be obtained by convolving the input sequence x[n] with the impulse response h[n] = [1, 0, 0, 0, -1].

    • The given transfer function H(Z) represents a discrete-time system with a finite impulse response (FIR) filter.

    • To find y[n], we need to convolve x[n] with the impulse response h[n] = [1, 0, 0, 0, -1].

    • Convolution can be performed by sliding the impulse response over the input sequence and summ...

  • Q8. There is a gun in which 2 consecutive slots of the 6 slots are filled. One of the 6 slots is chosen at random and fired at you. It misses. Choose an option between taking the next slot after the one that m...
  • Ans. 

    It is better to take another random shot.

    • The probability of hitting the target is higher when taking another random shot.

    • Taking the next slot after the one that missed you does not increase the chances of hitting the target.

    • Each slot has an equal probability of being chosen, so the odds are the same for both options.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q9. Tell me something about yourself which is not there in the resume?
  • Ans. 

    I am an avid rock climber and have scaled several peaks around the world.

    • I have been rock climbing for over 10 years

    • I have climbed peaks in the Himalayas, Andes, and Alps

    • Rock climbing has taught me perseverance, problem-solving, and teamwork

  • Answered by AI
  • Q10. What do your parents do?
  • Ans. 

    My parents are both teachers, my mom teaches English and my dad teaches Math.

    • Both parents are teachers

    • Mom teaches English

    • Dad teaches Math

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The test had 4 sections each having 20 questions with +1/-0.5 marking. The timing for each section was Analog: 45 minutes, Digital: 45 minutes Aptitude: 30 minutes and Signal Processing: 60 minutes. I was shortlisted for Signal Processing interview.
Tips: Course materials to be referred:
Analog- Analog Circuits
Digital- Digital Systems
Signal Processing- Signals and Systems, Digital signal Processing
Duration: 3 hours
Total Questions: 80

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The interviewer was very friendly. He helped me out when I was doing a mistake by giving a small hint. He was seeing whether I could catch that hint or not. He asked me to explain the project(in brief) I mentioned in the resume since it was related to signal processing. The interview lasted for 30 minutes.
Tips: A)Your basics in Digital Signal Processing have to be strong because the questions asked in the interview are very basic.
B)Never talk rubbish if you don't know the answer. Don't hesitate to tell ''I don't know''.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: It was a short round. This round was just a formality as we were already selected by then.
Tips: Prepare structured answers for standard HR questions.

Skills: Digital Signal Processing - DSP
College Name: IIT Madras

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: There was written test in the very beginning of the selection process. It had questions from logical reasoning, quantitative aptitude and electronics. It had questions from microprocessor and many other electronics topic. Thereafter there were the interview rounds.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: There were 2 rounds in which they asked me both HR questions as well as core field related question. They asked me to describe myself as well as tell them about my strengths and weaknesses. They also asked me about working in the southern part of India and my views on relocation.

On the technical side they asked me the following questions:

1) Design of D-latch from 2*1 mux?
2) XOR gate using minimum number of NAND gates?
3) Shift registers connections to get a particular sequence?
4) Use of Accumulator in processors like 8085?

In general the interview was more focussed on the technical side with the HR side just to make sure I will be a good fit in the company.
