I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Synopsys in Apr 2013
Interview
I had an interview for about four hours. I had many three rounds all the rounds were exhaustive. Not only my technical skills were put to the test, even my analytical and logical skills were tested. Other than the technical round, there was a HR round too.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
It was about my expected package. Generally whatever figure you quote, the HR opposes it :-)
