I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at MKS Instruments (Rochester, NY) in Sept 2025
Interview
Scheduled a 30 minute call with the recruiter. We chatted about the position, logistical details, and also my motivation on why MKS, why FPGAs, and also a little bit about my experience, as well as experience with the technologies listed in the job description. The recruiter said they would pass on my information to the senior engineer, and I received an automated rejection email a few days later.
