      Application

      I interviewed at Broadcom

      Interview

      I applied this March and it took me less than 3 weeks to get the chance for interview. As I applied for embedded software engineer. Background questions are firstly asked. Then some projects on C.V.. Because the interviewer is familiar with this project and he asked lots of questions. Then, questions about the hardware and software are asked, which is quite specialized.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The most unexpected question is that if a read-only variable which is defined by 'constant' will be allocated with the memory when compiling.
