I applied in-person. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2021
Interview
I was contacted by NVIDIA in the first part of November of 2021. After a lot of interviews and waiting I got a job offer on January 7h. After that recruiter send me an email every week or two in which he told me they are hiring too many people and that I need to wait couple of days to sign the papers. This lasted for full 3 months after which I send an email that I'm not interested anymore. Highly unorganized company. You have to wait more than a week to get an answer to an email. HR is a mess
