Overall process went smooth. Initial round of phone screen for 1 hour followed by 8 rounds (including lunch round) of onsite 1:1s each round lasting 45 mins. Results were given out in 1 week.
Interview questions [1]

Interview
Questions on physical design concepts , syn and apr
Sta questions about constraints

Overall good experience
Five engineers, a manager and director asked medium level engineering and architecture questions including proof of structured coding and design skills. Each interviewer had varying questions. They rated at 0 (won’t work with candidate), 1 (adequate) or 2 (exceptional hire) for a team survey of votes to compare multiple candidates.

long but effective. 4 rounds of interviews ( quiz questions, computer architecture, past projects, leadership experience, basic algorithm questions, coding, etc.) each last 40 min. results came back after 10 days
