      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cadence Design Systems (San Jose, CA) in June 2017

      Interview

      Interview was scheduled for one day, back-to-back with 5 people. That included my first and second line managers, one peer test engineer, and two sw/fw engineers. The scheduling was clear, I have received prior email with directions and instructions, and all interviewers were very nice.

      Question 1

      The questions were related to my area of expertise, programming languages, embedded systems etc. Pretty basic level, no tough questions.
