Went to one interview with one senior team member (not a manager). two questions:

2. you are given a string and a regex (a*b for example). return True if the regex is equal to the string, otherwise return False.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Broadcom (Bengaluru) in May 2013
Interview
Questions on MMU (hard), bit manipulations, LTE technologies, algorithm efficiencies. But they gave you time to analyze and never put you down if you gave the wrong answer. Questions on internship experience, questions on university projects.

I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Broadcom (Bengaluru) in Jun 2014
Interview
Hiring process started with a phone asked all your details. Then in one week got a call for face-to-face. The interview is completely on C. Until they feel you are really good in C, then dont ask about other skills, like linux etc. Their main focus is on C.
There are many pdf's available online like "crack the interview" etc. Make sure you have prepared or recalled the thingsin C. They are very good that they will ask you to come for one more interview on C if they feel you are nervous and couldnt answer the questions. Company is good. Saw ppl going here and there with laptops and boards, discussing only about work while sitting there for the interview to start.
