It felt pretty standard. First, they asked me to introduce myself, like a 'tell me about yourself' type thing. Then they asked questions about my experience that I mentioned in my intro and on my resume (they definitely read it!). They wanted to know what I did in my experience and previous jobs, and why I chose to do those things. After that, they asked why I applied to TSMC and if I wanted to work there, and then let me ask them questions.

The interview process consisted of two rounds. The first round was with a director from our department, while the second involved both a director and a deputy director. The focus was primarily on my past experience as outlined in my resume, along with some common behavioral questions. There were no Leetcode-style coding challenges.

Got an email, then set up a phone screen. The recruiter seemed unfriendly, interrupted a lot, and rambled without understanding the role. Got ghosted after that.
