Interviewed Feb 2012 (took 3 days)
First got a phone call from recruiter then phone discussion with two managers. Then on to on site interview. All the interviewers were friendly and most of them asked about why I want to change my job and about my past experiences. There were some technical questions but they were pretty basic. Overall it was quite nice.
Interview Questions
If you have two capacitors in parallel with the same capacitance value and there's a ideal switch between positive side of the two capacitors. Let's say Capacitor1 is charged up to voltage V1 while the switch is off. And then the switch was turned on. What is the voltage across the parallel capacitors after switch was turned on. What is the energy before and after the switch is turned on.

Interviewed with 8 people which took all day. Most asked about background experience and a project that stood out. Technical questions about circuit engineering, and layout were also asked. What would you do to solve this" type questions.
The people were nice, but the work culture would be to work long hours, and most weekends.

Interviewed Nov 2008 in Santa Clara, CA (took 2 days)
I was by my friend who works in the company. The interview questions are OK, not too hard. I answered all technical questions pretty good. So the feedback on me were very well. But the process of getting the offer approved was a litlle slow though.
