Acudí a una entrevista en AMD (Sunnyvale, CA) en ago 2010
Entrevista
The resume was forwarded by an internal contact. So, the interview setup/scheduling was relatively quick over email.
3 rounds of interview: two with the team members and one with the director.
The interview with ~7 team members was mainly technical. Question on:
Digital design principles: setup/hold times and ways to address setup/hold time issues, state machines, finding issues with digital circuits, other logic design questions
C: handling different endianness, embedded C code optimization issues
System Verilog questions
Logical puzzles
After the first two rounds the hiring manager indicated that the feedback was good and he would like me to come in to meet the director.
It took about 2 weeks from that point to receive an offer

Nothing was really difficult but some of the questions on System Verilog were very specialized /infrequntly used cases.
They give me a notepad like application and then asked me a some simple coding questions. In some cases,I was also given a codebase and then asked to explain the reason for certain code existing.

I went through 4 rounds, all of which were technical and included elimination after each round. Here's how you can prepare:
Preparation Tips:
Have a strong understanding of your current job profile and responsibilities.
Gain hands-on experience with a complete testbench, whether for IP or SoC. Expertise in both is a big advantage.
Revisit the basics, as these might be overlooked over time. Review SystemVerilog and UVM thoroughly.
Dive into advanced topics, such as UVM RAL (Register Abstraction Layer).
Scripting knowledge is a valuable add-on, so brush up on it if possible.

Entrevista
Brief (~30 min) interview with the hiring manager to understand the position at AMD and also discuss my work background. Follow up interview with the hiring manager and members of the technical team with more in-depth technical questions, etc. that lasted ~75 mins. I would recommend doing some prep work for the technical interview (review of specs, etc). Overall, the questions were very reasonable and fair.
