I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Bengaluru) in Jun 2015
Interview
In technical interview, the questions were mostly on the switching characteristics of the MOSFET and its basic circuits such as an inverter. timing parameters were targeted and the practical knowledge of 'HDL to device-level' design flow was tested.
Overall the interview was based on the basic digital systems and a in-depth knowledge of VLSI concepts were not tested.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Enlist the relative and absolute timing parameters of an inverter?
Basic digital design, clock domain crossing ,fifo for analog prepare rc circuit. keep your basic clear and dont try to make interviewer fool. Approach to problem is checked rather than answers.

Question 1
fifo depth, multiplier, 2s compliment rounding off
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Thiruvananthapuram)
Interview
They started with asking questions about my projects in the resume. And they went deep into it.
Next they asked what is your favourite subject for which I answered digital electronics. They asked about fsm, flip flops, timing etc.
Had 2 rounds of technical interviews and 1 round of behavioral interview. As long as you know your basics of digital logic, such as counters, muxes, STA, etc it's not that hard.
