NVIDIA SWE Intern interview questions

Stage 1: Technical Recruiter Call (20 mins, Phone) The recruiter reached out within a few days of my application. This was a 20-minute call to discuss my background, projects, and interests in NVIDIA. They asked about my experience with algorithms and why I wanted to join . No technical questions, but they confirmed my familiarity with coding and set expectations for the next rounds. Tip: Be ready to explain your motivation for NVIDIA specifically. Stage 2: First Technical Zoom Call (1 hour, Video) This was a one-on-one coding interview via Zoom, using a shared coding platform (HackerRank). The interviewer gave one LeetCode medium problem: Find the longest palindromic substring in a string. I had about 25 minutes to code in Python, followed by 15 minutes discussing my approach . They asked about edge cases and time/space complexity trade-offs. The interviewer was encouraging and wanted to hear my thought process clearly.

Had 2 interviews. One was heavy on hardware, PC, knowledge, as well as general behavioral questions, resume questions. More of a conversation. Other was simple LC, and hardware related problem solving.
