I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cadence Design Systems (San Jose, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
Started the day with a 45 min presentation, followed by 1-1 interviews with about 10 people. Not too many technical "testing" questions were asked, rather we talked about various coding and implementation details about my previous work. It was a long day, but in the end I was pleasantly surprised with how friendly the atmosphere was.

Interview
I met 5 guys one by one in 5 hours and I was asked briefly about the company I worked before, in details, what kind of projects I took part and what skills I used. They did show me some codes and asked to find errors, possible memory corruption and how to optimize that code.
