Cadence Design Systems Staff Applications Engineer interview questions

The interview took about 4 hrs and in general it went well. The interviewers are reasonable and asked realistic and relevant questions. Meet with solid engineer that deal with cutting edge design. To me Cadence is expending and they sincerely attracting talents.

The hiring process was consisted of a phone interview followed by a half day on site interview. There were 6 interviewers some in person and some over the phone. All the interviews were mostly focused on how my current skill set and experience would address the most latest industry challenges related to Cadence tool set. Over all the interviews were detailed and touching almost all aspects of current physical design challenges.
