ADI's loops split along role type. In the Philippines (mostly Cavite site, Associate Test Development / Product / Test Engineer roles), candidates report an online technical exam gate, a role-specific technical interview that revisits the exam plus capstone / project detail, and a final interview stage. India experienced-hire loops (Senior Digital / Data Engineer) run through multiple back-to-back technical rounds before an HR/manager close. For analog IC / mixed-signal design roles the interview is a fundamentals grill (transistor operation, amp topologies, filters, sampling / ADC concepts) paired with a deep dive into the candidate's MS or PhD thesis. Named assessment platforms aren't visible in any writeup we found.
These 3 writeups cover analog mixed signal design, digital design, applications engineering and other roles, PH + India + IE + US, no dominant site. All of them were posted under a pseudonym (Reddit, GeeksforGeeks or forum handles), so we could not verify the authors’ identities.

1
Online technical examOnline assessment
A written technical exam sat before any interview call. OP passed it but noted many questions felt unfamiliar, suggesting broad electronics coverage rather than a tight syllabus. Invitation to the next round came about a month after the exam.
A 30-40 minute panel that the recruiter framed as a recap of the online exam but that in practice centred on the candidate's undergraduate capstone project, tools used (Multisim, MATLAB) and role during the project. Same-day result within a couple of hours.
Covered · Past projects, Multisim, MATLAB, Circuit basics

Final interviewFinal
A closing interview offered to candidates who cleared the technical round. Format was not described in detail in the thread.
First of two back-to-back technical rounds that a 6-year RTL design engineer (from an India services company) cleared while switching to ADI. Content areas not itemised in the post, but framed as core digital / RTL design.
Covered · RTL design, Digital design
2
Technical interview 2Technical
Second technical round, also cleared. The candidate treated the two rounds as sequential deep-dives, both technical rather than behavioural.
Covered · RTL design, Digital design

Technical interview 3Technical
Third technical round the candidate was preparing for when they posted. Long candidate notice period was flagged as a recurring conversation point with recruiters at ADI and elsewhere.
Round 1+: Technical panel, deep project + fundamentals grillTechnical
Commenters in the thread who have interviewed at ADI in this area describe the loop as an in-depth dive into the candidate's MS or PhD project (for example, walking through a self-designed ADC's switch design, comparator and trade-offs) plus a broad circuit-fundamentals grill covering transistor operation, amplifier topologies, small-signal modelling, filter mag/phase, S-domain and sampling, aliasing, and RF receiver architectures. Most rejections in the thread's ex-interviewer's experience were failures at basics or shallow ownership of listed projects.
Covered · Transistors, Op amps, Filters, Sampling theory, ADC design, Past projects, Resume deep-dive

What topics does Analog Devices test in interviews?
Commonly reported topics include Circuit basics, Op amps, Transistors, MOSFETs, Filters, Sampling theory.
These guides summarize public, first-hand interview experiences shared by candidates. They describe the shape of each loop and the topics that came up, not a leaked question bank, and every experience links back to its original source. Processes change often. Treat this as directional prep, not a script.
