I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at HCL (New Delhi) in Jan 2021
Interview
Two rounds of Interview. First is technical and second is HR. Technical questions are neither easy nor difficult. Just conceptual. Have a strong command over fundamentals. Have many college seniors there. The renumeration is less and a service agreement is placed on you but it's worth every penny because the training is world class. You can prefer it over few giant VLSI companies because skill development will be better here and in a long run after your service agreement is over, you can get placed in those aforementioned giant VLSI companies at a better position for a better renumeration.
