I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Applied Materials (Phoenix, AZ) in Sept 2019
Interview
A preliminary interview over the phone is conducted in order for the employer to clear up any doubts about the job and so that they can get an idea of the possible employee's personality and communication skills. There is also an opportunity for the person being interviewed to talk in more detail about their most important skills and projects.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Applied Materials (Singapore) in Aug 2025
Interview
Got called for an interview about two weeks after applying. The conversation with the manager was easygoing, and I could follow all the questions without issue. It just seemed like they were more focused on someone with a strong theoretical background rather than mainly hands-on experience. Overall, I’d say it was an average interview.
