I applied through college or university. I interviewed at AMD (College Station, TX) in Dec 2020
Interview
I just had my first round of interview before the Christmas break. The hiring manager touched upon all the parts of the role. On the whole it was a good experience. Hoping I get a callback soon for the next rounds.
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AMD (Markham, ON) in Nov 2020
Interview
It was so informal and they don't even respond you after 3 weeks. Also when you send them follow up email they don't reply.
Bad experience overall for the position in Markham, ON
