The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KLA (San Jose, CA) in Feb 2010
Interview
inital it was a phone interview which was mostly hr like work flexibility, PR skills, travel, describe project in detail, to a layman. after this a on site interview where they gave a skill test on image proessing technique which they described before. after this 4 one on one interviews like describe project, travel, why want to work here
One screening call, a quick tour to the lab, and a 1.5 hour technical interview. During the phone interview it was mostly to discuss a gap in my resume. The interview was on cute.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Basic electrical engineering questions and a behavioral question
Fair behavioral question and ask about relevant job experience. The overall process is smooth and the interviewer is easy going. Take some time to prepare for company related questions and you should be fine.
Interview with the Hiring manager was chill but he did not really ask anything about my background nor how I would fit the role.
Instead he asked me some brain teasers, which caught me off guard a little.
