I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Dallas, TX) in Mar 2026
Interview
The interview process was smooth, and my interviewer was nice. About 6 or 7 technical questions and 5 behavioral asked.
Technical questions were all on op-amps and the behavioral were mostly centered around how I dealt with challenges and maybe 2 on my projects that I had on my resume.
Multiple rounds with people from different groups within the same team. It all comes down to if you can work with the manager or not. It is important to ask questions back about the state of the team and what they're looking for.
