Round: Interview
Experience: In this round just routine questions asked to me and there was a time duration about 40 minutes
Tips: For HR round you have to asked only just routine question so you have to prepare for routine questions

General Tips: Core companies mainly asks question from core(basic digital,devices and signals). Then you have to focus on these topics.
Skill Tips: If you guys applied for core companies then you have to focus on digital circuits,devices,signals and on inverter characteristics
Skills: Inverter characteristics, Core subjects, Basic Digital, Basic Device Signals
