Candidatei-me por indicação de um funcionário. O processo levou 2 meses. Fui entrevistado pela Synopsys (Durham, NC) em ago. de 2013
Entrevista
A friend forwarded my resume and a director called me about some positions that were opening. We talked for a bit one day and a few days later I had a phone screen with 4 different people lasting 15-20 min. each. Mostly just discussed stuff on my resume. I didn't hear anything for 3-4 weeks and then was asked to come down for an onsite interview. For the interview it started as a panel and I gave a presentation and went over details of my resume and then broke into round robin style for the rest of the day. It was mildly technical throughout, mostly just getting my opinions of different tools, coding styles, problem solving philosophies and stuff like that. Nothing overly difficult nor in some cases was there even a clear right answer. Every was very friendly, although a bit difficult to read initially. I did get positive feed back a day or two later from the hiring managers and he stated they wanted to interview a couple more people and decide the best role for me. About 2.5 weeks later I got an offer.

I contact the hiring manager at LinkedIn. After a week, I got a phone interview with 5 engineers. They invited me to fly to California for an onsite interview. We spend the afternoon talking about my Ph.D. dissertation and discussing program languages, advances in new technologies, EDA industry, etc. It was a very pleasant experience.

Candidatei-me online. O processo levou mais de 1 semana. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Synopsys (Mississauga, ON).
Entrevista
One approximately four hour interview, with 1-on-1 sessions with 3 engineers and the hiring manager. The overall process was pleasant and the questions were relatively easy. Salary and benefits negotiation is straight forward, as there were not a lot of room for it.

Entrevista
Applied on-line, and was contacted about 2 weeks later. First 1 hour HR interview (standard HR questions: strengths/weaknesses, why Synopsys, why you, etc.), then 1 hour interview with a hiring manager. Then, on-site interview (~5 hours: 4 x 1 hour 1:1 or 1:2 meetings). Then, 3 x 1 hour phone interviews with senior R&D people. Finally, one more quick HR interview. A bit of a wringer, but overall a very positive process, as everyone was very friendly, helpful, and interesting to talk to. No complaints.

Some of the technical questions were quite challenging, however nothing unexpected. Make sure you're up and up on the technology for the group you're applying to. if you're coming from academia be prepared to discuss and present your research effectively.
