First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Skyworks Solutions.
Training Specialist
Weirdly casual and unprofessional communication from HR, like texting. The interviewer asked about expected salary but refused to disclose a range after I responded, even though the job listing didn't mention it. They also asked about overtime and plainly stated that ongoing support for night shift workers after office hours is expected, without mentioning overtime compensation. They kept bringing up my lack of relevant industry experience, which is fair, but if it was that essential, it should have been a pre-requisite on the job listing. It feels disorganized.
No confirmed questions were included in this interview report.
Data Analyst Intern
The interview process involved an initial phone screen with HR, followed by a one-on-one meeting with the hiring manager. Mostly non-technical questions were asked, focusing on my past experiences and personal projects, since I'm a student and don't have much professional experience yet.
- Tell me more about the projects on your resume.
- Can you provide more specific details about your personal projects?
- Describe your experience with the projects listed.
RF Design Engineer
It was a 1-hour interview, mostly technical. Started with basic RF and Analog Circuit questions. They asked about the Smith chart and impedance matching. Also asked about 5 OTAs and parasitic capacitors in MOSFETs. The interview went well, and they asked about specific LNA design specs from one of my resume projects.
- Could you explain the Smith chart and related impedance matching concepts?
- What are the 5 OTAs you're familiar with?
- Regarding MOSFETs, what are the parasitic capacitances involved?
Principal Financial Analyst
I applied in June and heard back in August for a phone screen. The hiring manager conducted it because the recruiter left. We covered basic info, and I asked about the process timeline. The conversation was neutral as we didn't discuss the job much. There hasn't been any follow-up since. I still get job alerts from them, and my application status is 'under review,' though I doubt it. The role was reposted two weeks ago, so it's likely still open.
- Could you introduce yourself?
- What are your salary expectations?
