Candidates applying for Senior Analog Design Engineer had the quickest hiring process (on average 30 days), whereas Senior Analog Design Engineer roles had the slowest hiring process (on average 30 days).
It was a technical interview. The interviewer was a team leader. He asked questions about current mirror, source follower, RC circuits, oscillators and PLL. Besides, he asked some questions about the projects from CV.
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at AnSem (Duisburg) in Jul 2021
Interview
There were two rounds of interviews. In the first round, I was interviewed by one Frontend Manager and one Backend Manager. The Frontend person was too judgmental about any statement I was making. The Backend person was rather composed and constructive.
In the second round the interviewer was a senior technical person from Germany. He had very thorough knowledge of VHDL whereas I mostly worked with Verilog. Though the discussion was reasonably good, but I was expecting more logical questions rather than HDL constructs. One can hardly judge a doctoral candidate with such questions after all I did not do my PhD in VHDL.
I had to wait for 3 months for the feedback. Of course I did not get the job.
