I applied through university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Dallas, TX) in Oct 2012
Interview
I attended a career fair and dropped my resume off. I had very interesting conversation with a hiring manager and mentioned that I'd like to work in analog design. A week later I was contacted by a recruiter to do an online interview. Basically a video software asked me five questions and I had to record a video with my answers and mail it to a hiring manager.

Question 1
Why do you see yourself doing this job?
I had a difficult time answering this question since I had applied for an analog design position in the beginning. I was not really interested in a sales position, but I still mentioned all of my skills that make me a good fit for sales (multiple languages, public presentation, engaging conversationalist, etc).
Wasn't too rough but asked very niche questions and the sales portion of the interview seemed to carry the most importance even thought the interviewers suggested otherwise. The sales interviewer seemed the most disinterested in being there which made the mood drop when that section came up.
HireVue had 3 questions, talk about myself, how I would work around a conflict and a project related to the field. I was able to redo each of the questions and it seemed like we could prepare it after pressing start interview

Question 1
how I would work around a conflict with a employee
Smooth. Focused on personality and resume. Less of technical questions. Gave a business case study. Just be confident and smile. Also asked to draw block diagram of any electronic device. 3 rounds in total. 2 technical and 1 hr.
