J'ai passé un entretien chez NVIDIA (Santa Clara, CA)
Entretien
I was contacted by a recruiter after applying. Then, all correspondence seemed like boilerplate scheduling emails; I don't think the recruiter/scheduler spent any time crafting custom responses. I did an initial informational/technical screening followed by a 2 hour technical interview. After deriving a solution to the coding problem, I was led to believe it went well and I'd be getting contacted for the next steps. Then, I received an automated rejection email a week or so later.
Overall, this was a very impersonal, borderline disrespectful, experience. It seemed like they already had someone selected and were just going through the motions to interview other people. The interviewers were very nice, but also weren't familiar with my experience going in. The interviews weren't very focused and seemed somewhat disorganized, especially since they weren't prepared to give the technical test.
They asked to talk about some projects I worked on and then also asked two leetcode questions. I answered both questions correctly, although the second one I answered more slowly and the code was not organized but the solution was correct.

First a brief self-introduction of the team

Question 1
Tell me about a project you built at work.
If it had 5000 concurrent requests, how would you make sure you didn't lose requests?
60 minute technical interview as the first stage instead of a regular screening. Very effective, interviewer was quite professional. Would totally recommend applying, had it as my first big-tech interview
