      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Sigma Designs (Milpitas, CA) in Sept 2011

      Interview

      Had one phone interview and one on-site Interview. Phone interview with manager was not focussed on programming but on knowledge of audio/vieo firmware. On-site interview was mix of programming and audio/video/image coding related questions. Talked with 3 or 4 tech people and one HR, one VP. Not very difficult questions. Interview was scheduled quickly and decision was made quickly.
