Technical Behavioral
i faced 3 rounds for the R&D Engineer position. The first round covered basic electronics and digital circuits. As I had prior experience, I didn't have to take a written exam, although one might have been part of the process. In the second round, there were four interviewers who asked about my previous work and some questions regarding operational amplifiers in electronic circuits.
