I applied through college or university. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Dallas, TX) in Sep 2014
Interview
Had an on-campus interview a couple of days after a career fair. Wasn't really hard and the interviewer was very helpful. Overall, I was nervous going into the interview but after I sat down and started answering questions, it felt like an easy process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions about basic cmos design and transistor characteristics along with a simple RLC circuit analysis.
i did the technical interview for 1h with two senior engineers using webex for the analog design engineer role and had to annotate using the mouse so it was uncomfortable
TI Design Engineer interviews cover analog/digital fundamentals, op-amps, STA, Verilog, CMOS, memory, and embedded C. Expect problem-solving, project presentation, and behavioral questions testing depth, reasoning, and technical clarity. Other than that it was basics.

Explain the working of a folded cascode op-amp and analyze its noise performance.
Excellent experience being interviewed by TI. This was back in 2007-08. TI was my first ever job and I had the most fantastic experience of my life working for them
