I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AMD

I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AMD
Interview
Communication through email was poor as it took weeks to recieve reply. Replys where also lacked needed unfo which resulted in more followup emails (another 2 weeks). Phone interview with serveral hiring reps asking questions. Some questions where related to me, others specifically about AMD, as well as generic logic/thought questions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked what time it was at my current location (4:43pm). Then asked what the angle would be between the hour and minute hand of 4:43 on an analog clock.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at AMD (Austin, TX) in Aug 2020
Interview
Applied through referrals (position is actually postdoc fellow in machine learning). Talked to the manager and then had a phone screen with a senior researcher. Answered all questions and they seemed interested, but they are way too slow and if you don't follow up, they won't get back to you at all. The senior researcher seemed nice but mentioned doesn't have enough experience in machine learning. I don't know what's the point of interviewing postdoc applicants in the machine learning area and wasting their time, if you can't even find an appropriate interviewer who has enough expertise!

Question 1
Basic ML and deep learning questions (regularization, different types of gradient descent and their drawbacks), etc.

Interview
The whole interview process was very smooth. The interviewer started off with the basics, with him delving deeper into the topic, every time you answer correctly. He helped me too when I got stuck, so I was able to answer most of the questions I didn't know the answers of with the hints he provided. He summed up the interview by connecting all the dots at the end, and this gave a much clearer picture of the work I am supposed to do during the intern.
