I applied online. I interviewed at Intel Corporation in Sept 2017
Interview
Applied for Process Engineer position at Intel (Wafer processing area) and got an email from Manager/Supervisor to schedule an interview time. Phone interview was an hour long, and very in depth. He asked very in depth questions about my research and work. For example: I mentioned I worked with synthesis and my background was in Chemistry, he proceeded to ask me what "pH" stood for and to define it to fully judge my knowledge. Asked for me to describe in detail the components of analytical instruments like XRD, SEM, TEM, even though that's nothing like what the position was for at all. He was very knowledge and though I didn't give perfect answers, I tried. At the end I was offered an on-site interview.

I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Albuquerque, NM)
Interview
Process begins with a phone screen with recruiter, followed by hiring manager discussion, then onsite interviews consisting of several one-on-one sessions, where candidates are usually expected to deliver a presentation.
It was pretty straightforward overall. They mainly asked questions about my resume, previous work experience, and the projects and research work I completed during my graduate studies. The conversation was conversational and focused on understanding my background and technical experience.
