I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Hillsboro, OR) in Feb 2023
Interview
Five interviews (2 rounds), initially with a recruiter, then with the hiring manager and three other engineers separately. I interviewed as a fresh grad with a PhD. The interview was straightforward, starting with my presentation, followed by a mixture of technical and behavioral questions, and questions related to the presentation.

The interview consisted of multiple rounds, including technical deep-dives, behavioral questions, and scenario-based problem solving. They focused heavily on semiconductor fundamentals, process troubleshooting, and previous hands-on experience. The interviewers were professional but asked very challenging technical questions that required detailed explanations and real examples. Overall, it was structured but highly demanding.

The usual interview questions: tell me about yourself, why do you want to work at Intel. I shared some of my interest, luckily enough the hiring manager shared similar interest and we had a pleasant conversation about this.
