Process
I received an email regarding a phone screen with the Engineering Manager. A couple of days later, I was invited for an on-site interview.
On the day of the on-site interview, there were three candidates. Each of us participated in a 1:1 interview. We had lunch together with the interviewers, including the hiring manager, and the other candidates, followed by a site tour.
The range of interview subjects included:
- Logic design
- Device physics
- Circuit design
- EE fundamentals
- Scripting
- Computer architecture
- Behavioral questions
The interviews were not too difficult. It was important to make sure your interviewer understood your thought process; they needed to know if your approach to solving problems was on the right track.
The interviewers were very nice. Don't be nervous even if you were asked about topics you are not familiar with. I am not strong in scripting, but I believe I managed through my interactions with my interviewer.
