Interview
Got a call from Broadcom for Analog and RF Modeling position. Had a short 30 minute phone screen.The interviewer who called was cheerful and kind of eased me into the interview. The interviewer asked some basic questions on my coursework and projects.
Simple verilog questions like "Difference between reg and wire",sensitivity lists, inferred latches were asked.Verification related questions like "Checks for a Amplifier" were asked too.
The interview didnt last long and got wrapped up in 30 mins. Overall an easy phone screen.
