I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Freising) in Feb 2012
Interview
Der Gruppenleiter der Apteilungsleiter und eine Personalerin haben mich zu meiner. Motivation und zu meinen Kenntnissen befragt.
Es war relativ entspannt, sie waren auch motiviert sich selbst in einem positiven Licht darzustellen. Man hat mich zur Thematik Fragen gestellt, aber der Gruppenleiter hat auch seine Produkte vorgestellt gezeigt, damit man sich ein besseres Bild vom Job machen kann.
Ich habe den Job dann auch angenommen.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Warum wollen sie sich bei Texas Instruments bewerben?
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.
