How to prepare for a VLSI interview
- Start with Verilog and digital basics. Blocking vs non-blocking, latches, FSMs and resets come up in almost every fresher interview.
- For verification (DV) roles, go deeper into SystemVerilog OOP, randomization, assertions and UVM.
- Answer out loud. Knowing the answer is different from explaining it clearly in 1 minute. Use the bot's 🎤 Speak mode to practise.
- Be ready for the follow-up. Every answer here lists what the interviewer may ask next.
- Know your own projects. Interviewers always ask about the FIFO, protocol or testbench on your resume.
