I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Synopsys (Bengaluru) in Jun 2008
Interview
Very thorough. Asked about programming techniques in C & C ++. Fundamentals of VLSI and electronics are a must known. Must have a good aptitude. Logic design is also important. Overall communication skills must be well above average.
Neutral experience
Difficult interview
Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Synopsys (Cambridge, England) in Jan 2026
Interview
HR screening interview first. Then a technical interview with hire manager (1 hour including 15min tech question ). Much more difficult than expected. So carefully prepare CV lists before the interview.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Synopsys in Dec 2021
Interview
The majority of questions that were asked were from C++ and DSA. During Second Round the questions focus was on OOPs principle and some algorithms. The interviewers were very friendly and they just wanted to see if you understand the concept properly.

I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Synopsys (New Delhi) in Oct 2021
Interview
Pathetic. Really really pathetic. I didn't expected like this from such a reputed company. They took my two interviews and I performed really well and they told that they will be scheduling my last interview round bit they dissapeared after that. I called them and asked the reason and they told that your notice period is too long. We need immediate joiners. I already mention couple of times in the introduction call and they told first it's fine and after taking two interviews they were just like this. Really disappointed.
