Interview questions [1]

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Synaptics (San Jose, CA) in Jan 2014

They called and had phone interview, followed by in person. Very aggressive and lengthy process.
Overall it was not so difficult. It took longer after interview to close, they had few 1:1 and HR discussions
