I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Hillsboro, OR) in Mar 2013
Interview
I gave my resume to a recruiter at an on campus career fair. He called me later that day to have a 30 minute interview on campus. I explained my PhD research and he told me more about the D1D Ramp department. A phone interview was arranged for about a week later. Mostly very specific behavioral questions, and some discussion about my research. I was asked to come for a site visit in Hillsboro, OR about 1.5 weeks later. The flights and interview was not arranged until 2 days before I needed to fly out. I have 4, hour long interviews (one behavioral, one technical, one with the head manager, and another general one) all conducted in the noisy and distracting cafeteria. I also gave a presentation of my thesis research. The whole day they were focused on questions about maintaining and understanding instrumentation, while my experience is in fundamental chemistry research. There was a lot of discussion up front about the long hours expected and being on call 24/7. I decided that the job was not what I was looking for, but they also decided I wasn't right for the position, I assume because my lack of experience with engineering instrumentation and machines.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Very specific behavioral questions "Tell me about a time when you had to form a team on the fly and then you were the leader of that team?"
I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Albuquerque, NM)
Interview
Process begins with a phone screen with recruiter, followed by hiring manager discussion, then onsite interviews consisting of several one-on-one sessions, where candidates are usually expected to deliver a presentation.
It was pretty straightforward overall. They mainly asked questions about my resume, previous work experience, and the projects and research work I completed during my graduate studies. The conversation was conversational and focused on understanding my background and technical experience.
