      Video Compression Engineer Interview

      Jul 14, 2010
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Markham, ON
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at AMD (Markham, ON) in May 2010

      Interview

      I First explained about the algorithm I developed in image processing for video frame rate up-conversion. The technical interviewer tested my knowledge on video compression standards and he was quite impressed about it. Then I was asked to write a C test and I said I developed all of my algorithms in MATLAB for the past two years and did not have any exposure to C in the past five years (I indicated that in my resume). It turned off the hiring manager right away and I didn't get the job!
