I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AMD (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2015
Interview
Begins with technical questions followed by behavioral question. There was also a part where they showed you what the layout team does and what goes on in a day to day setting. Overall amazing interview experience, just be prepared and know all CMOS DIGITAL configuration. And study electronic CMOS, know the characteristic curves. And be able to draw. They will give you paper and expect you to draw. Also Autocad experience is a bonus.
