Ramtin S. asked a question to Namya R.
As mentioned in my question, my professional experience has been in electrical engineering, while my ASIC/FPGA-related experience comes from university and personal projects. I’ve been building strong projects around SystemVerilog and FPGA/RTL design and verification. I’d really appreciate any advice on what Nokia’s hardware teams value most in early-career candidates.
Hi Ramtin! To stand out in ASIC and FPGA design and verification, I would focus on being able to explain your projects in depth: why you made certain design choices, how you verified your work with testbenches, assertions, and coverage, and what bugs you found and fixed. Putting your projects on GitHub with clear documentation also helps, and it is worth getting familiar with AI tools, as long as you can check the output and explain your own work. I would also keep an eye on Nokia’s careers page for early-career roles and tailor your resume to each one. Best of luck!
