Process

The interview process included two technical screenings, followed by a virtual onsite round. The onsite round consisted of a seven-hour period with six interviewers, featuring 45-minute slots with breaks. The interviews were completely technical in nature, with questions drawn from core basics. These included topics such as RC circuits, RL circuits, op-amps, filters, Bode plots, DC-DC converter drawings and analysis, and some complex circuit analysis.

The interviewers were a mixed group. A couple were very engaged and interested, while some were extremely disengaged and seemed to want to get through the round with minimal interaction. Overall, there was little emphasis on discussing past projects, with a focus instead on solving many problems on the spot. Be prepared with your problem-solving skills, and you'll likely do well.
