Senior Engineer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
I applied through an internal referral.
The first phone screen was with the manager and was very general, asking questions such as how to debug an infinite loop in a testbench.
In total, there were 4 technical rounds and a lunch with the manager.
Three technical rounds included basic RTL design questions, and one round focused on back-end topics.
I received an offer approximately 3 weeks after the interviews.
Questions
Basic RTL design questions:
- Difference between blocking and non-blocking assignments
- Basic coding
