I gave them my resume at a career fair at my school. They called me in to take a test the following week. They put everyone in a big room and gave us one hour to take the test. The test consisted of converting hex numbers to binary, explaining what snippets of code do, giving expected output, object oriented programming concepts, pointers in C and C++, circuits, and writing sample code.

Question 1
Circuit questions such as finding the voltage at a certain spot. Im comp sci not electrical engineer so i had no idea how to do this sort of stuff.
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.

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!
