I am interviewing for a Junior Programmer role in embedded systems and passed the first round interview. It was some conceptual questions and two coding questions very similar to leetcode. The final round is this week and I am unsure what to expect. It is 2-3 hours long whereas the first was <1 and is subjected "Systems" whereas the first was subjected "Code." I was told from my recruiter to possibly expect whiteboard questions but am unsure how to get help on this. Is there anyone with experience in working as a SWE in embedded systems who knows what I can expect from this final interview?

depending on how high level the job is will determine what they ask
might ask you bit manipulation questions
might ask you C trivia questions or C++ trivia questions
OS related stuff
like i said does depend on how low level this job is
wet sinew
it’s an entry level position
do you know where i can find practice questions or any methods to prepare?

it being entry level doesnt matter @wet sinew
the questions will depend on how low level this job actually is
lemme rephrase, it being entry level or not does matter but that isnt what i meant by "low level"
wet sinew
yea looking back i misunderstood what you meant but now do

👍
but as to resources, you may just have to google
i was in the same situation when i graudated
my first role was an embedded role, and its not easy to find information out there for those interviews because they can vary quite a bit
