      San Jose, CA
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Xilinx (San Jose, CA) in Jul 2016

      Interview

      I had an initial phone interview with the manager of a particular team. It involved both introductions and technical questions. I was told there were multiple candidates for consideration and I would be contacted for further interview steps. I had to follow-up after a week time and I was told that they will get back to me asap. Later I was told they have decided not to pursue any further interviews with me as they have found more suitable candidates. The manager I was in contact suggested to forward my application to other teams but I have not heard back from anyone else from Xilinx since then.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I was asked to list the design steps using the Vivado tool. I was also asked about setup/hold violations and my past experience dealing with them.
