I applied through university. I interviewed at Microchip Technology (Bengaluru)
Interview
Communicative interviewer. Really helped me throughout the process. HR was clear and was accommodating all my requests. Super helpful management. Questions were intriguing and needed a blende of in depth understanding and out of the box thinking.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microchip Technology in Jan 2024
Interview
The interview process took way too long. It was 5 rounds of interviews within 2 months. All to be rejected at the end after the final round with HR a week later.
I would say most of the interviews i had with the hiring team felt more like a conversation rather than an interview, so i felt very comfortable throughout the entire process. I learnt a lot from it. They even brought me on an onsite lab tour and showed me some of their tools they used. You would think that getting an offer looks pretty promising after that. Bunt instead it was a rejection email. Feedback was that i did not have enough customer experience, so they went with the other candidate.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Resume related technical questions - they are more interested in what you did and how your experience align well with what the team needs
Applied and soon after received an email to set up a phone interview. The interviewer promptly called on the day of the interview. The interview lasted about half an hour.
