Question 1
First Technical Round :-
My interviewer asked me about my internship project which was based on FPGA and gave me questions from Digital and VLSI.One was to detect an overlapping sequence from an input and another was to construct a two-input XOR gate using only NAND gates. He also asked me about MOSFETs.
I answered all of them correctly and was shortlisted for the next round.
Second Technical Round :-
He also asked me to explain my internship project and some other basic robotics projects which I had mentioned in my CV like Line follower, Edge detector Robo and Obstruction Detector Robo.
He gave me two puzzles to solve which I solved.
A the end he asked me that why I want to join Sandisk and my expectations from it.
I was shortlisted for the HR round.
HR Round:
They asked me to introduce myself. Then we talked about my hometown, hobbies, positions of responsibility, projects done by me and my experience in them and my family. They asked me about my weaknesses and what I am doing to remove them. At last he asked me why I wanted to join Sandisk and where do I see myself in five years.
I was shortlisted but not offered any job as there were no more vacancies left for the profile because of their preference for M.Tech students.
