Interviewed Mar 2012 (took a day)
Initially got an email, set a date and time for a phone interview. The interview was completely technical. Asked basic questions about transistors, difference between NMOS and PMOS, asked about SMPS, Filters, digital logic etc. The overall experience was good. The questions were really basic. If prepared you would easily clear the round. The interviewer was friendly. Was my first interview. I guess I screwed up big time. Anyway, you prepare all your basics properly and you will have a chance!

Interviewed Sep 2010 (took 2 weeks)
I interviewed for ncg positions with microchip twice. They paid for my travel expenses and to stay in a nice hotel. One for a test engineer position(sept 2010) and for a reliability engineer position (May 2011) . I interviewed with HR who asked me multiple times if i was willing to relocate and I said I was, and they continued to talk about how its hot in arizona which people are surprised about when they get here. i interviewed with about 5 engineers from the department and related departments each time and had lunch with the department lead. Interview went well and consisted of some technical questions mixed with questions about your collegiate projects, experience and background. Technical questions weren't too hard and which I got them correct. Reliability engineer asked some illegal questions about my family that didn't seem to be asked with malintent. I give the interview a total negative experience because everyone acted like I had the job and the interview went terrifically; but I was sent a rejection letter.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Chandler, AZ (took 1+ week)
Hiring process is fast and good. Really good interview. But if you are looking for a company that sponsor you H1B then this is not right company for you. If someone with less caliber, Green card or US citizen is there in competition then forget about getting offer..
They asked

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Gresham, OR (took 4 days)
They called me and spoke to me very well. I was scheduled for a phone screen 3 days later. During the call, two people talked to me, one was the engineer and the other one was from HR. The engineer asked me basic questions related to the job and the HR just asked me some behavioral questions. I told everything I could tell. The next week they gave me an email saying they are not interested in me anymore.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Bangalore (India) (took 5 days)
The interview process was quick, probably because my CV was apt for the requirement. The interview process had typical steps i.e telephonic, 1:1 & HR round. The "Open-minded" work culture was projected by the management at all levels of interview, and the same was emphasized to me for following while joining the organization. I felt really good about joining this organization.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Gresham, OR (took a day)
Phone screen was very positiive and upbeat.
Panel interview was difficult and hostile, clear that I did not fit in with what they were looking for
They didn't even give me a chance to make my closing statement (why they should hire me), just showed me the door
