The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Cadence Design Systems (Pune)
Interview
This is regarding pune location which is tensilica group.
During F2F i didn't feel its Cadence. During first round interviewer was asking previous projects and trying to understand what work have done along with some basic questions and if i stuck some were he was giving hints, second person was bit rude and was not interested at all during interview he was going outside, questions were simple though. like swapping and lot of arithmetic operations even i showed them using SV they want it again same thing in C or othey way which might be related to there work or somthing they want specific approch but his behaviour and way of talking was unprofessional that behaviour bounds to think me again to work in this culture and avoid questions.

I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Cadence Design Systems (New Delhi) in Apr 2025
Interview
Due to health issues, I was unwell during my scheduled interview and attempted to reschedule by reaching out to the HR contact I had. Unfortunately, I didn't receive a timely response and had to proceed with the interview while running a high fever. The panel showed little empathy, and the interaction lacked basic introductions or professionalism. Despite being asked moderate, relevant questions, I couldn’t perform at my best due to my condition and was later informed that the interview would not be rescheduled as the panel had decided to reject my profile.
An online test was conducted followed by a technical interview where technical questions from my resume were asked and an HR round. The final selection was announced after all the processes.
