The interview lasted an hour and consisted of a video call. It was very technical. The interviewer was very friendly and open to answering questions. I was asked about personal projects I have listed on my resume, prior experiences, and any work related to digital design.

Question 1
If you have a 1Hz input and want to extract a code, but not overlapping codes, and cannot miss any codes, how would you go about designing a FSM to do so?
J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez Cirrus Logic en juin 2015
Entretien
I was asked to apply for this position by one of their Head Hunters.
I had a phone interview with 3 managers. They went through my CV and asked specific questions on my inventions and which design choices I have done to improve the products of my company, which was quite uncomfortable (ever heard of confidentiality?). Working for a competitor of Cirrus, I had to refuse to answer to certain questions or to be vague.
They refused to answer to any question specific to their business; even simple things like which technology they use.
It gave me the feeling that they were trying to get some insights in the business of a competitor.
