Technical questions: 1. Build a FSM of pattern recognition? 2. What is meta-stability? further more discussion about mean time between failure 3. Diagram of Pull up and pull down transistor network 4. talk about Verilog/HDL experience Also, one of the first question was interviewer wanted to hear in my word my experience and skills mentioned in the CV. So you must be able to explain all your projects and summarize the technical work mentioned in your CV concisely. Soft skills: The HR questions were on company values such as innovation, team work, leadership. For example from your experience, tell us about a time where you showed innovation or leadership, or resolved a issue in a team. I suppose the key here is to show that you will be a good team player and will give credit to the whole team and resolve issues, because from the similarity in the director interview it did feel like they really value team work skills, more than anything.
