I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Broadcom (Bengaluru) in Mar 2009
Interview
I was called directly for personal appearance (no telephonic round). Was interviewed by four different people separately. I felt that it was not organized properly as they had lot of candidates scheduled for interviews on the same day. Interview was more about the past work experience and skill set. It was not too much in-depth in to any specific subject. Overall the technical round was ok. But I was not happy with the kind of questions asked in the HR round - like how do you handle stress etc. Better be prepared with the behavioral kind of questions if you plan to attend an interview with HR.

Interview
It is very standard process and the people involved are very professional. Goes through whole day with bunch of engineers taking turn on 1-1 interview. More than technical, they look at how much yo adapt to their pace of work and culture.
