I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Santa Clara, CA) in Sep 2014
Interview
1) on campus - strictly behavioral (mainly interests and how to handle certain work/team related situations
2) webex presentation on topic of interest or project (technical questions related to topic and project/work history )
3) on site in Santa Clara - completely technical with 3 different teams ( all testing to see who's fit) -- know FET parasitics as well as response to temperature changes. Also know normal op amp, cap, and project-related questions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What happens to body diode resistance as temperature increases
First started with behavioral questions then technical questions. Some technical questions they asked were op amps, RC circuits and coding question. Technical questions were pretty basic and interviewer was pretty nice.
One initial contact at a job fair, then one video call like zoom but using TI’s system, where your screen is shared and you present a project that you’ve worked on, and the last step was an in-person interview in Dallas, where they pay for the flight, the car, accommodations and meals. The last interview had two rounds, one behavioral and one technical.

Question 1
They asked me to draw the truth tables of some simple logic gates: AND, NOR, etc…
Four rounds of interviews, two were by yourself and two were in person. First was a behavioral exam. For in-person basic technical questions were asked followed by a presentation about yourself.
