      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at SiFive (Evergreen Park, IL) in Apr 2022

      Interview

      1 hour long and all what he asked me is the probabilities of hit/miss on cache ! A nice guy though. But definitely a waste of time. And of course got ghosted as it’s the trend of companies now.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1
