Interview Process   |   Interview Puzzles / Aptitude
Organization : Nvidia
Position : Software Developer
I applied through a staffing agency and the process took more than a month. But at last I was interviewed at Nvidia. There were in total 6 rounds if I include the Offer thing as well.

First Round: Telephonic Interview by Recruiting Agency
They asked me all sort of details regarding my career and the past job and experience. Basically they wanted to be sure that the person they are forwarding is worth sending or not.

Second Round: Screening Interview
The questions revolved on my CV majorly. There was a moderate reasoning test also as I was asked some reasoning based puzzles. I answered all successfully.

Third Round: Technical Interview
A lot of tricky programming related questions were asked. It was a bit tough. None of the question was one of those usual ones being asked in the interviews.

Fourth Round: Manager's Interview
The questions in this round were focused on c++ and java. Some were easy and some were difficult. Some basic questions regarding RDBMS and algorithms were asked as well.

Fifth Round: HR Interview
This was a round that gives you relief in the tiring and long interview sessions. Again, some of the questions related to my resume were put forwards. Some questions regarding OS and basic programming were asked and it was a good one.

Sixth Round: Offer
The final offer as per the negotiations that you go through is revealed here.

I had a great time in the interview and I was selected as a Software Engineer.

Difficult Brain Twister

A strange tradition is followed in an orthodox and undeveloped village. The chief of the village collects taxes from all the males of the village yearly. But it is the method of taking taxes that is interesting.

The taxes paid in the form of grains and every male should pay equal pounds corresponding to his age. In simpler terms, a man aged 10 years will have to pay 10 pounds of grains and a 20 years old will be paying 20 pounds of grain.

The chief stands on a riser containing 7 different weights next to a large 2 pan scale. As per the interesting custom, the chief can only weigh using three of the seven weights.

In such a scenario, can you calculate what must be the weights of the seven weights each and who is the oldest man the chief can measure using those weights?
