Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One software leetcode style question. easy-easy-medium level. You can use any programming language
One hardware digital verilog/vhdl interview. Asking how to find the largest value in a ROM. Another potential question is how to figure out given two strings of 4 ASCII characters, figure out which string has a higher value
The process began with an online application followed by an initial screening. After that, there was a technical interview focused on Verilog fundamentals, digital logic, and FPGA toolchain knowledge. I was also asked to solve an RTL coding problem live and explain my design decisions. The final round included some behavioral questions and discussion about past projects. Overall, it tested both practical experience and conceptual understanding.
