I thought I did pretty well on the questions, but I never heard back. They were pretty fast with the initial screening, but I didn't even get a rejection email like I usually do for other jobs. I was kind of hopeful I had a shot. If the job market is this tough, it would be nice to get some kind of feedback or consideration.

Confirmed questions1 question

It was a very technical interview. They asked multiple questions related to digital electronics, like Static time analysis, Hold time, and how to build different logic gates from others. I was also asked about my previous experience. I had to solve general questions on paper. There was no HR round. I needed to give a good introduction and show my interests.

They called me without even checking if my resume matched the required skills. I asked HR if my resume was shortlisted, and they confirmed. I requested a phone interview, but HR denied it, which felt like a waste of time and my leave day since it was in person. Another person was called from Mysore for an interview, but it was canceled last minute due to panel unavailability, wasting his whole day. I suggest asking for a phone interview first instead of going directly.
