Applications Engineer at Intel Corporation

No Offer – Interviewed in Swindon, Wiltshire, South West England, England Mar 2013 – Reviewed Mar 20, 2013

Interview Details Online application followed by an invitation to an assessment day. The assessment day begins with an initial reception where you meet all the other candidates. This is followed by a schedule brief from the Hiring manager. You will be given a personal timetable which consists of the times/rooms for each interview and activity of the assessment day. There are two interviews: one behavioural/one technical. Then a final group assessment The behavioural interview involves drawing relevant examples from your past experience to demonstrate your approach to different situations. The Technical interview is slightly more intense than the behavioural interview as the interviewers are trying to gauge exactly how much you know and how far your skills go. You will be asked to elaborate on the technical skills listed on your CV and to demonstrate them. Your group assessment will require you assert your problem solving and team working skills. For my group assessment I was blindfolded and given 4 differently shaped and coloured objects. As a group we were told that for each candidate there should be 5 of each shape in 5 different colours. And between us, 2 of the objects are missing overall. So, we had to work together to work out what the missing objects were. I was one of the people with a missing object. We got 45mins for this exercise but it doesnt take that long.

Interview Question – The technical interview was the most demanding part of the day in comparison to everything else.During the fixed part of this interview I was shown a computer motherboard and then asked to demonstrate my knowledge of its architecture by 1) Identifying all the main components 2) Identifying the function of all the main components 3) Describing the typical boot-up sequence of a Computer (CPU, BIOS etc)
The rest of the interview was a discussion directed by the technical skills laid out in my CV.

Senior Manager at Intel Corporation

Accepted Offer – Reviewed Jun 14, 2013 New

Interview Details Hired out of MBA as Sr. Analyst. on-campus interview, followed by 4 interviews on intel campus. Heavy on behavioral interviewing content.

Interview Question – Tell me about a time when you had to deal with an extremely difficult person at work.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – Negotiation was really only around start time, which mattered as I began right before a stock split. The offer included a fixed number of stock options, but the company would not allow them to split with the stock. Starting before the date of record allowed me to have 2x the number of shares than if I started after.

Process Engineer at Intel Corporation

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Portland, OR (US) Mar 2013 – Reviewed Jun 12, 2013 New

Interview Details I submitted an application during on campus visit. One week later I received an email requesting a phone interview. One on one phone interview was rather casual. I was asked about my biggest challenge in graduate school. I was not quizzed directly about topics and concepts in my area of study. At the end of the phone interview, I was asked for an on site visit. The on site visit consisted of four one on one interviews, and 45 minute presentation on my part, and lunch with Intel employees. The questions that came up most often were: how well do you work with others in a team, and describe your trouble shooting approach to malfunctioning equipment.

Interview Question – Several hypothetical scenarios were given to my test problem solving approach. For example, how would I trouble shoot a malfunctioning tool.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – The offer was not negotiable.
