      FPGA Engineer (Technical Lead) Interview

      30 Jun 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at DRIFT NET (Chicago, IL) in Jun 2020

      Interview

      Just two phone calls, nothing face to face. The owner walked out on salary negotiations rather abruptly. The salary came in rather low in addition to only 10 days of PTO, the majority of the pay was dependent on bonuses.

      Interview questions [5]

      Question 1

      What is your familiarity with image processing?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      We are so sorry that you had a negative interview experience with Drift Net Securities. We strive to make every interview a respectful and enjoyable process. We offered $150,000 plus bonuses ($50,000 - $100,000) to you, which is an extremely generous offer given your limited applicable FPGA work experience (less than 5 years). Unfortunately, we could not meet your $280,000+ base salary request, and your lack of interest in our bonus structure raised concerns on our end that you are not confident in your ability to perform. In regards to PTO, we offer 20+ days and are always willing to negotiate this as well.
