I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Texas Instruments in Mar 2015
Interview
I attended my school's career fair and talked to Texas Instruments. At the career fair, it was mostly personality questions and questions about goals and interests. I was given an interview the next day on campus. I was interviewed by 2 engineers and was asked a series of technical questions about digital and analog circuits based on my education level. I was contacted a couple days after and told I would be moving on to a phone interview with the hiring manager. The phone interview was another series of technical questions and I was given an offer shortly after.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Technical questions about basic digital design and op amps
Solve a circuit using Kirchhoff's Laws
First started with behavioral questions then technical questions. Some technical questions they asked were op amps, RC circuits and coding question. Technical questions were pretty basic and interviewer was pretty nice.
One initial contact at a job fair, then one video call like zoom but using TI’s system, where your screen is shared and you present a project that you’ve worked on, and the last step was an in-person interview in Dallas, where they pay for the flight, the car, accommodations and meals. The last interview had two rounds, one behavioral and one technical.

Question 1
They asked me to draw the truth tables of some simple logic gates: AND, NOR, etc…
Four rounds of interviews, two were by yourself and two were in person. First was a behavioral exam. For in-person basic technical questions were asked followed by a presentation about yourself.
