The interview process typically involves submitting a resume, a phone or video screening, technical assessments or coding tests, followed by in-person or virtual interviews, and ends with feedback or an offer.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cadence Design Systems in May 2023
Interview
Video call with an engineer. Starts of with asking for a short introduction of yourself. After that followed a series of random questions on C++. Lots of cherry-picked questions and no real type of questions that try to gauge if your able to reason about different things just "do you know about X, Y and Z?". After giving through answers on like 90% of the questions I got a "you dont know the STL library well enough" because I did't remember by heart the name of the function that sets the capacity on a std vector. Super weird given that I answered all his other questions on STL containers as well. I'd say don't waste your time, this interview process is unprofessional and the person that interviewed me was unprofessional as well.
Was okay interview asks leet code questions and recruiter bahavior questions. I was not ceru confident of some lc questions because they force me to use python and c not java
One phone screen by the hiring manager. Then after clearing phone screen came six 45 minute virtual on site rounds which were all technical rounds .No HR round took place.
