They had a first round phone interview and then a second round video call. I didn't get moved forward, so I'm not sure if there were more interviews or if it went straight to an offer.

They also asked about IC design knowledge, audio experience, DSP, signal processing methods, and A/D converters, with a leaning towards applications over pure IC design.

Behavioral Technical
I was contacted by a recruiter, and the HR person at the company was super helpful and open. The interview was a mix of personal and technical questions because they really want to ensure the candidate is a good fit for the company culture and also technically skilled. The company was also really supportive when I couldn't work for a few months during my job transition.
