They went through my skills/resumé during an interview. Then proceeded to ask me the 3 light bulbs question (non-textbook answer), one debugging question for errors in C/C++, and a super simple coding question. This round was relatively simple. My 2nd interview was a scenario based one where I had to solve a problem top to bottom, highlighting what kind of technologies and solutions I would use. They basically try to assess a combination of your creativity and knowledge. It was an interesting interview, but I don't think I did extraordinarily well here.

The 3 bulbs question and fizzbuzz
Debouncing ckt connected to a microcontroller
Design question followed up with a role play
Scenarios using Ohm's law to solve for power consumption. Programming to implement lighting controls. How to set up a microcontroller for lighting control. Puzzle on how to deduce the types of bulbs in a given installation. Using general knowledge of Boston, figure out about how many windows there are in total on the buildings (this was the irrelevant question).
Write a code to counter the effects of switch debouncing.
Have you used Metropolis? What did you think of it? What would you improve? (Got asked this by different people)
Ask me to talk about the information on my resume, basic resistors and BJT problems, if a micro controller can provide enough power for a light bulb, and how to dim a light bulb with PAM. They would keep asking to see if you fully understand the details.
How would you implement a singleton in cpp
They started with this line like they all do to get your first impressions "Tell me about yourself"
