Nokia Senior Researcher Interview

Posted Aug 9, 2012 1 of 1 people found this helpful

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Sunnyvale, CA – Reviewed Aug 9, 2012

Interview Details – I found the job through my personal/professional network. I discussed with my hiring manager before submitting my resume to HR. HR then scheduled an on-site interview. I started by giving a presentation to the whole group on my background. The interview was most of a day (10-4) and they took me to lunch as a team. I was interviewed by about 6 people, who asked a wide variety of questions. Some basic questions about my technical background and simple coding were asked, but no significant brain teasers. The atmosphere was one of mutual respect. I felt that both parties were feeling out a personality fit as much as for technical competency.

Interview Question – The question that threw me off the most was "What do you want to learn in the next X years?" Not something I had thought about. Technical questions were not meant to be challenging, just checking basics.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – I negotiated with HR after discussing with manager. HR was more firm on salary than manager.

Other Details - I applied through an employee referral and the process took 1+ week.
