Description

Do you scroll through Google or Glassdoor to look for electrical engineering interview questions to no avail?

Are you scratching your head trying to figure out how to best prepare for electrical engineering interviews?

Whether you are a self-taught maker, a professional engineer, an electrical, robotics, or mechatronics student, or even a new grad looking for their first job, this course is carefully tailored and designed to take you through a comprehensive overview of interview questions you could be asked at electrical engineering interviews at some of the top Silicon Valley big tech and startup companies.

In the age of electrification, everyone, whether big tech or startup, desperately needs electrical engineers. Over the the last few years, the greatest engineering job vacancy in the United States is electrical engineers, leaving a massive opportunity for you to take advantage of these 6-figure job openings.

I am Aria Tedjarati, a Stanford-trained electrical engineer that has led teams at some of the biggest and most prolific tech companies all around the United States, including Joby Aviation and Tesla. I’ve gotten job offers from over 30 tech companies, and personally administered over 500 electrical engineering interviews. Now, I’m here to help you.

This course will go through the fundamentals of electrical engineering and electronics, and in each section, I will present various potential interview problems associated with these topics. The ideal student will have a basic understanding of electrical concepts such as voltage, current, energy, and power. Fret not, however, if you are struggling with any of these topics, as I will cover the fundamentals of every basic electrical concept in my course. With the purchase of this course, you will also get access to my personal Discord server that contains a plethora of interview questions, cheat sheets, and videos.

I personally guarantee that by the end of this course you will feel more confident, better prepared, and less stressed about tech interviews. It’s time to take your life’s reigns into your own hands and land an electrical engineering job at a tech company!

See you inside the course!

Excellent resource on electrical engineering interviewing. There really isn't much out there on this apart from some blog posts, so seeing such a well compiled list of both technical and soft-skills is so so helpful!

This course couldn't have come at a better time as I am preparing to interview for top companies in EE. Aria is a top-notch educator in explaining complicated concepts and sets the learner up to shine and really demonstrate their knowledge on the interview trail. Highly recommend this course to anyone looking to really stand out in their interviews!

What an amazing course! Aria is a fantastic teacher, and he does a great job of making complicated concepts easy to understand, his years of experience in this field clearly show. The course is also incredibly thorough, covering not only every technical topic I can think of but also important non-technical topics like polishing my resume, networking, how to present myself, etc. Thanks Aria!

This is the perfect EE interview prep course I needed. His explanations are great and to the point without rambling. The course covers the majority of the stuff you could expect at a generalist electrical engineering interview, especially if you're a student looking for your first job. THANK YOU!
