I applied online. I interviewed at Garmin in Feb 2022
Interview
Garmin's interview process usually starts with a phone screening, during which basic questions about experience, qualifications, and interest in the position are asked. If successful, candidates then undertake technical assessments or coding tests to evaluate their problem-solving skills and technical knowledge. This is usually followed by one or two rounds of onsite interviews. These in-person sessions allow the hiring team to delve deeper into the candidate's experience, skills, and gauge cultural fit.
Phone screen was a common tell me about yourself and why Garmin. They didn't ask any follow ups on your answered and seemed to just run through the list of the questions they had.
I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Garmin (Olathe, KS) in Nov 2025
Interview
I had 1hr behavioral Interview and 1hr technical interview. Behavioral interview was about how I got to know the company, why should the company hire me, and what kind of research experience I had.
Process took about a month. Recruiter was slow getting back to me but interview process was alright. The interviewers were friendly and mainly focused on problem solving and how you think through your code.
