Entretien
After 3 phone interviews they brought me in for a full day onsite interview with several people. Nothing unexpected, but kind of repetitive as most interviewers just asked the same basic questions. After taking a whole day off work for this, they didn't even have the courtesy to follow up afterwards which is about as disrespectful as you can get.

I had two interviews, one with HR, one technical. Both interviews happened on Teams. It's was ok. . Got rejected after that.
They asked some simple C++ questions and coding problems.
The interview was pretty good, but I wasn't prepared for the EDA specific question since I haven't worked in that industry before. Plus points for using Rust, I really like that
