I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Synopsys (Bengaluru) in June 2015
Interview
I applied through the referral. There were total 6 rounds, in which 4 were technical physical rounds. Next day, I had one HR round and one telephonic interview of technical part one week later. The whole process took almost two weeks to complete. The questions covered were mostly of ASIC designing and VLSI Digital Basics. Having strong academic command on basics would be enough to crack the interviews.
