Texas Instruments HR Interview Questions

38 questions and answers

Q. Tell me about a time you overcame an obstacle.
Q. Explain the projects listed on your resume.
Q. Introduce yourself.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: There was written test in the very beginning of the selection process. It had questions from logical reasoning, quantitative aptitude and electronics. It had questions from microprocessor and many other electronics topic. Thereafter there were the interview rounds.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: There were 2 rounds in which they asked me both HR questions as well as core field related question. They asked me to describe myself as well as tell them about my strengths and weaknesses. They also asked me about working in the southern part of India and my views on relocation.

On the technical side they asked me the following questions:

1) Design of D-latch from 2*1 mux?
2) XOR gate using minimum number of NAND gates?
3) Shift registers connections to get a particular sequence?
4) Use of Accumulator in processors like 8085?

In general the interview was more focussed on the technical side with the HR side just to make sure I will be a good fit in the company.

When HR’s Chinese English made me drop the interview!
So, I talked to the HR yesterday about the interview. I asked Please send me the location But their English… bro I was shocked! It was like talking to someone jisne english nahi kuch ar hi seekh liya ho, if the HR’s English is this I can only imagine the rest of the company I decided to drop the interview with this chinese english😶‍🌫️

  • Q2. What is your thesis topic (in detail)
  • Q3. Explain NOT gate
  • Ans. 

    NOT gate is a logic gate that inverts the input signal.

    • Also known as inverter gate

    • Produces output that is opposite of input

    • Symbol is a triangle with a small circle at the input

    • Example: NOT gate with input 0 produces output 1

  • Answered by AI
  • Q4. Explain NAND gate
  • Ans. 

    A NAND gate is a digital logic gate that outputs false only when all its inputs are true; otherwise, it outputs true.

    • NAND stands for 'Not AND', meaning it inverts the output of an AND gate.

    • It has two or more inputs and one output.

    • The output is true (1) for all input combinations except when all inputs are true (1).

    • Example: For inputs A=1 and B=1, output is 0; for A=0 and B=1, output is 1.

    • NAND gates are universal gates,...
