Candidate-reported interview process

It was an online placement recruitment. There was one round of written test which had interesting vlsi questions. Then there were two rounds of interview with different levels of questions.

First we did introductions, then some technical questions came up, followed by a discussion about the company's values. Then they asked about my interests and if I'd be open to relocating.

So the process started with an Online Test, which had two parts. The first part was technical since I applied for a digital design engineer role, and it lasted 60 minutes with about 17-20 questions that were a bit tricky. The second part had aptitude questions. They shortlisted after the test and there was only a 3-4 hour gap before the actual interview, so be ready! My interview itself was about an hour and a half, with two panels interviewing me. Overall, it was a great experience.
