I applied online and the recruiter reached out to me to schedule the first round which is a 5-6 multiple choice questions on C++ over the phone. I wish they change this part. It highly inconvenient.
The next round is a coding round with a senior developer with very simple and introductory level algorithmic questions. The next round is also a coding round with a senior developer. One of the questions was related to the role that I was applying for and the other 2 questions were from Leetcode.
I was invited to the onsite.
One of the rounds was with a recruiter that had standard behavioral questions.
One of the rounds was with a director. It involved a coding question related to the role and other questions about my interest in Samsung. They made an offensive and unprofessional statement irrelevant to the interview process. I quote them "I bet you are [insert my nationlity]". I think this wasn't necessary and I don't expect it from a director.
There were 2 other leetcode type problem-solving rounds.
One round was with a hiring manager. They had an emergency and were logged on to zoom through the phone with super poor internet connection. We could barely convey what we were trying to say. I wish they had scheduled this round again.
After spending so much time in interviewing and preparation, the recruiter delayed and stopped responding after the onsite like. They didn't respect my time and efforts at all. I emailed the recruiter every 2-3 weeks for 2 months for an update only to know that they haven't made a decision yet. When I emailed them for the last time about an update, the recruiter then responded back from a no-reply email id that they have moved forward with other candidates. Wow! Totally disrespecting the candidate.
None of the interviewers responded to my message on LinkedIn
Anyways, I wish all the best to the company!
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Samsung Semiconductor Inc (US) in Sept 2024
Interview
One round with the HR person, asked me a bunch of technical and administrative questions and never called me back again. I do not know what went wrong exactly but I got back a rejection.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Samsung Semiconductor Inc (US) in Feb 2024
Interview
The interview process was very straightforward. It was mainly about past experiences and detailing how those might help with your work at Samsung. It was for an internship position and there was only one round of interviews. HR was also fast to respond. Good experience!
