I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AMD
Interview
AmjadKhan, I am still wondering about HR process followed in AMD, How a company can ask a candidate to submit the salary documents without making sure that he will be considered. How they will consider salary to make the decision about candidate consideration. This is my first bad personal experience regarding recruitment process in an organization. I have lot respect for AMD as organization, but I never expected such silly mistakes from organization such as AMD. It is always professionalism to reply to mail if it is conveyed that it will be replied in certain time. I hope the HR team in AMD will be more sincere with candidates in future. They should respect a candidate then only they will get respect from them and I personally feel you need improvement as a HR manager.

Have a strong understanding of your current job profile and responsibilities.
Gain hands-on experience with a complete testbench, whether for IP or SoC. Expertise in both is a big advantage.

Dive into advanced topics, such as UVM RAL (Register Abstraction Layer).
Scripting knowledge is a valuable add-on, so brush up on it if possible.

Follow up interview with the hiring manager and members of the technical team with more in-depth technical questions, etc. that lasted ~75 mins. I would recommend doing some prep work for the technical interview (review of specs, etc). Overall, the questions were very reasonable and fair.
