Where do engineering companies pull there interview questions from?
(OP)
Hello
I am interested in applying to systolic (https://www.systolic.com/) software or systems engineer role. I was wondering where do these engineering companies pull there technical interview questions from? Is there a book or something that I can go to get familiar with the interview questions. Do they create there own interview questions with out using any reference? If there is book or repository of questions where they pull from, which section is most likely the questions going to come from?
Thank you

I have also seen other interviews ask strictly personal questions: Where do you see yourself in five years? What do you hope to learn/get out of this role? Etc. So it depends on the interviewer. If you are really interested in the job and show that you can work with the interviewer then you'll be fine. So be yourself and don't be afraid of not knowing the answer, just show what you know and your interest in the questions being asked.

You obviously have access to a computer, the internet, etc., so Google for interview questions

I had worked out mileage charges and figured I could get a nice BMW sportscar with the mileage... They had a month introduction to the office work, which was completed in a couple of days... they found me helpful in the office that I stayed there and never got my BMW sportscar.

The questions are going to vary widely - I don't think I've ever asked the same thing twice in 30 years, with one notable exception: "Can you give an example of an ethical dilemma you faced and how you resolved it?"
As to applying to a company like the one listed: expect questions related to both math and language (vocabulary, reading, writing) skills. Also questions on finding a "theoretical" solution to a "theoretical" programming issue. And finally, be prepared to face both a panel (2-8 individuals at once) and multiple interview sessions (usually with smaller groups) where you'll be questioned by some or all the members in quick succession - not always taking turns.

> He came in and I asked him to calculate the input threshold of a simply TTL logic gate, which he couldn't answer, so I showed him how to do the calculation. At the end of the day, I mentioned this problem, and another engineer said, "Yeah, I asked him the same question and he couldn't do it, but I showed him how to." A 3rd engineer then offered, "Hey, I also him the same question and he still couldn't do it." We wound up hiring him anyway, because he was being laid off from a sister division; he didn't last long, though, since he was pretty clueless.
> I read this interviewee's resume and saw that they had experience with this simulation program I use a lot. "Great! Tell me what sorts of systems you simulated with the tool." They, blushed and said, "Oh, well, I didn't actually use the program, I only watched someone use it."
