Was reached out to by a recruiter, did not receive any teams meeting invite and only saw a 45-min long phone call, the interviewer rescheduled twice last minute and during the interview it was clear he did not want to be there.
Asked some technical questions regarding synthesis and theoretical testing for DUT (mine was memory) and also some behavioral questions like encountering a problem during silicon bringup/emulation and how did you resolve.
Lastly was a logical question but anytime I thought outloud and it wasnt the correct process he would interrupt, shake his head and just say "No." then go and do what I presume was work during the interview.
