I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Chennai) in Dec 2016
Interview
There were 2 technical rounds. In 1st technical round, question were asked from Finite State Machines, Verilog Coding, FIFO and VLSI Design Flow. Interviewer went through the resume several times and asked about my working preference. 2nd technical round was on Static timing analysis, Parity Generator and Checker. No HR round was conducted. Interviewers were helpful, giving hints if you get stuck in something.
I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Santa Clara, CA)
Interview
Questions on physical design concepts , syn and apr
Sta questions about constraints
Concepts of transistor physics
Phone screen, multiple round, followed by conversation with the hiring manager
Overall good experience
Five engineers, a manager and director asked medium level engineering and architecture questions including proof of structured coding and design skills. Each interviewer had varying questions. They rated at 0 (won’t work with candidate), 1 (adequate) or 2 (exceptional hire) for a team survey of votes to compare multiple candidates.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Design a state machine to control a four way intersection of varying time traffic lights.
long but effective. 4 rounds of interviews ( quiz questions, computer architecture, past projects, leadership experience, basic algorithm questions, coding, etc.) each last 40 min. results came back after 10 days
