      FIT U Engineer Interview

      Dec 7, 2014
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Irvine, CA
      No offer
      Average interview
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at WD (Irvine, CA) in Feb 2013

      Interview

      I was an out of town candidate so they made me take a test in NorCal for an entry level position in Irvine. Its a 56pt test. 14pt on basic EE, 14pt on computer architecture/digtal design and freaking 28 point on programming. Though the job requirement said "Basic programming skills" it did include intense programming like making "Class" and stuff, After 3 weeks they sent out a mass email saying I wasn't selected.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Go over C/C++ as much as you can, I just have a feeling that the amount of programming they want can be done by a CE and not an EE (or may be a CS but they will lack EE abilities), Concentrate on programming as the EE questions are super easy as long as your basic is strong!

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at WD (Irvine, CA) in Nov 2014

      Interview

      I applied through college. It take around 2~3 weeks to get an email to take the online assessment for EECEs. It took 90 minutes to take. There was one problem to write a simple function in the end and you can choose the language you prefer. There were some questions related to the circuits and bits.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      A question to find a voltage on the given circuit. It was about npn.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at WD (Irvine, CA) in Feb 2014

      Interview

      Talked to recruiter at college career fair. Didn't hear back from them until received an email with a test a couple weeks later. 90 minute test for EECEs. If you do well enough you are invited on campus for an interview day within 2 weeks. Interview day seemed more of a test of desire/fit. Asked questions more about why you are here,what you like. Some questions on coding logic, some PCB knowledge. Overall seemed more towards finding best fit rather than proving self. Interviewed with maybe 10 others, heard only a couple got offers. Interviewed with 4 different people, various get to know you conversations

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about different sort algorithms. Tell me about this PCB (hard drive)

      Fit-U Engineer Interview

      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at WD (Irvine, CA) in Nov 2013

      Interview

      They were collecting resumes during an on-campus job fair. After about a month, I received an email that invited me to complete an online skill assessment test. The assessment contained approximately twenty questions regarding electrical engineering and computer engineering. And there were two programming sections where your entered code was validated. The assessment could be considered somewhat challenging if you were never exposed to certain topics. Afterwards, you may be invited to a four-hour interview at the Irvine office. There was an orientation, one-on-one interviews with four separate employees, and a tour of your potential work site. During the interviews, you will be asked about your experiences and also several technical questions. But normally, the FIT-U engineers are only assigned to a few specific programs like Failure Analysis.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      To the customer, what is the most important difference between ordinary hard drives and SSDs?
