I am expecting an offer from Apple for a DFT role. I am not sure about the future of DFT as the area is very niche and most of the innovation is done through EDA tools. I am interviewing for verification roles as well in other companies but I don't have any work experience in design verification. There seem to be plenty of opportunities for design verification in major FAANGs but DFT has significantly lesser positions. I know I may not be able to land an experienced verification role but I am okay to start fresh if the position is good.

Will it be a good idea to take the Apple DFT offer or continue looking for opportunities in verification from a long term growth perspective?
