Intel Corporation Interview Questions & Reviews in Oregon

Interview Details I submitted my resume in response to an e-mail sent from Intel to my department. I was given a phone interview by one group and was told to expect an e-mail within a week, however I didn't get an e-mail for about 3 weeks. When they got back to me it was a different group but they wanted to bring me on site for an interview. The phone interview was mostly behavioral questions with the occasional question about my research.

The on site interview took place in the cafeteria. I spoke with about 12 people throughout the course of the day. In the middle I gave a presentation on my Ph.D. thesis work. Most of the questions in my interviews had to do with my ability to troubleshoot problems and understand the aspects of tool maintenance and management. The overall feel of the interviews was relaxed and everyone seemed to enjoy conducting the interviews. They were all VERY clear about the hours required and the stress level associated with the job. At the end, I went home feeling very good.

I got an e-mail from Intel about 2 weeks after my interviewing offering me a position.

Negotiation Details – There wasn't much negotiation because I am a recent graduate

Interview Details I submitted by resume online and got a phone interview which was more on behavior questions with some basic questions on my work so far. Later got an onsite interview interview opportunity where I gave a presentation on my research work . There were questions mainly on the problem solving abilities and how you behave under pressure. All and all,a very friendly atmosphere and a good experience.

Interview Details Submitted resume online then a manager called me then the hiring manger called me then one person from HR called me then onsite interview

Negotiation Details – there was no negotiations!

Interview Details The position and hiring process was exclusive to recent college graduates through the university. The application was submitted through university system> I was notified a few days later that I was an invited for an interview at the expected date and time later that week. The interview process included two back-to-back 1-on-1 interviews with different recruiters. I was notified 2 weeks later through the university system that I would not be invited for a second interview.

Interview Details This lady that interviewed me was a very nice lady. She first started the interview asking me behavioral based questions such as, what are you strengths and weaknesses. I was able to answer those fairly easy. The technical questions came next. I was asked what type of analysis I would do to analyze a micron sized particle and the basis of the scanning electron microscopy. Overall, the interview lasted about 30 minutes.

Interview Details A manager came to our school to recruit graduate students for the process engineer position. I submitted my resume and got emailed about a 30-minute interview the next day. At the end of the interview, I was told I am going onsite. I came onsite a month later for whole day one-on-one interviews with an hour allotted for dissertation presentation. I honestly think this was among the easy interviews I had - almost no technical question, mostly about my work and experience with some behavioral questions. There was only one interviewer I remember that gave me "puzzles" to solve, but it was real life problems in the Intel fab. I was told that employees are expected to work ~60hrs/week with week-long on call rotations. Lunch with two of the employees gave me a chance to ask a lot of questions on how it's like working with Intel - they were very helpful. One of them told me that he really likes working there (coming in at 6am, having a long lunch and leaving at 5 is what he said). The other was transferred from another location and position, and told me that the previous position (design) was more enjoyable.

Reason for Declining – I had another job offer as a design engineer that I thought fits me better. The work hours, their offer package and the overall job description did not really compare to the other offer I had around the same time. I actually asked to delay turning in my decision to wait for that other offer and I had to decline a month after I received the offer. The offer came less than 2 weeks after my onsite interview. Ronler Acres is in such a beautiful town though.

Interview Details I submitted my resume online and was called by the end of the day by one of the members in the intern department. He said they were on a time crunch and has six candidates left to choose from, but my resume appeared better than others and he was wondering if I had time to interview before the end of the day. Luckily I only had one more class for the day, and accepted.

The "most difficult" question I was asked (probably because I'm a freshman) was given an array of 100 numbers in order (ie 1,2,3...,99,100) with 99 unique values and 1 duplicate value, how would I find the duplicate? I answered BST and then traverse the left or right child depending on what the root node was. He then asked me the big-Oh of it which is logn. I got a call from the original contact at Intel asking me to join them for the summer about twenty minutes after the phone interview.

Got an email the following week for me to consent to a background check and then the week after that I was formally given an offer.

Negotiation Details – No negotiation. I receive full benefits, free

Interview Details Received an email with a general call for resumes. I submitted mine and within a week I had a phone interview. The interview was in the typical STAR format. In my opinion, I did poorly because I did not prepare at all. After these questions, the interviewer asked one question about xray diffraction which was related to something that was on my resume.

Interview Details I was Contacted by AM for phone interview. Phone interview took 1 hr 30 mins. All behavioral questions initially then he gave an exaple of real life problem in Intel and ask me how would you approach the problem. Telephonic inteview went good and after a week I got an invitation for on-site interview. on-site started at 9 am and ended at 4.30 pm. they asked me all technical questions and few puzzles and some more real life problem at Intel. My interview went well from my side but only reason I think I did not get an offer is because I was not asking lot of questions to interviewer. It is my advise to everyone to ask as many questions related to the job as you can.
