I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at KLA (Chennai) in Jan 2016
Interview
The interview was conducted on campus. The first round was shortlisting based on aptitude. The next round was a Group Discussion. Subsequently, there was an algorithms round, following which there was a one on one discussion with the interviewer about the answers and the approach you took to solve the problem.

Question 1
What is the angle between the minute and the hour hand at 2:10?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KLA (Milpitas, CA) in Nov 2025
Interview
The interviewers were nice and welcoming. Initially, an online screening happened through resume shortlist. Then the interview took place online. However, the interview was on problem solving rather than technical.
3 rounds of interview done. HR interview, zoom interview and a technical presentation. Potentially still have another round of interview with directors. Interviewers are friendly, nice and welcoming. Do not feel pressured or stress during the interview.
