Process

I was contacted and flown out.

Interview day was 6 hours and I was interviewed by 5 different people.

All of the questions were technical and specific in nature. It was a very typical hardware interview, focusing on:

  • Pipeline stages
  • Creating HSM diagrams
  • Simplifying logic
  • Sizing, logical effort, fanout, and speed
  • Factors that make a circuit fast or slow
  • Setup and hold times

Overall, it was a very complete interview. Most questions were not tricky, and very little was behavioral.
