      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GlobalFoundries (Albany, NY) in Apr 2015

      Interview

      It started off with a couple of phone interview first with the Hiring Manager followed by a technical interview. Then they invited to their Malta Office for a 6 hour interview. 1st Round - Basic Java Interview pretty low level usually for fresh graduates please don't expect new technologies 2nd Round - General Technical interview pretty open no agenda. 3rd Round - Manager interview background information and scenarios 4th Round - High level interview usually they are focused on the issues they are facing and I think currently grappling with it. 5th Round - Senior Manager 6th Round - HR Interview which seemed like checking if you are a candidate who will stick around for a long time.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      why you want to change?? why you want to move to Albany? where do you see yourself in 5 years pretty much the standard interview got a feeling the company looks for PHd's or core bookish folks. It seems the interviewers are concerned if the candidate plans to stay long term in Albany giving the impression they are unable to attract good talent. It seems most of the work is outsourced so in short it is a co-coordinator job
