How NVIDIA hires
- For full-time roles, candidates typically participate in phone interviews followed by virtual or in-person interviews; interns typically complete phone interviews only. [Source]
- Candidates meet the hiring manager, team members, and employees from other groups; one-on-one, small group, or panel interviews usually last 30-60 minutes each. [Source]
- An onsite, in-person interview at an NVIDIA office must be completed before a candidate can be considered for an offer. [Source]
- Candidates for technical roles may be asked to complete a coding exercise, usually done using HackerRank on a whiteboard or on a laptop NVIDIA provides. [Source]
- Using unapproved outside tools such as ChatGPT during the interview results in disqualification of the candidacy. [Source]
- An Insider Chat is an optional 15-minute meeting offered to all candidates during the final interview that does not influence hiring decisions; most candidates have a decision within a matter of weeks from their first interview. [Source]
