I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cadence Design Systems (Austin, TX) in Apr 2016
Interview
Received phone screen for 1 hr and then on-site with 7 engineers. On-site was with SJ co-workers over the phone and the rest in Austin. Very nice people but very techincal questions.

Question 1
Typical Hardware Physical Engineering questions. Full flow from Synthesis to LVS/DRC. Concepts of transistor level to RTL to gate level. deep dive into CTS and timing QOR and PPA.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cadence Design Systems in Nov 2017
Interview
The interview process was spaced out into 4 separate pieces, a one on one, then one day with 5 phone interviews, another call with the manager of the overall group. Questions were average technically and some questions to see how I would fit with the team. Overall a thorough professional interview.
