Intel Corporation Process Engineer I interview questions

I posted my general resume in their career website almost a year ago. I got an email asking for a time to set up a phone interview for Process Engineer position. I did not apply for this position specifically. However, I agreed to a phone interview and it was done the same day itself. Phone Interview: Lasted approximately 45 minutes. Described the position as I was not familiar with the job description. Asked several questions relevant to my resume like working principles of SEM, TEM, XRD. Asked behavioral questions about my team play and how i interacted with my team members. He said he has to send the recommendation to the group and if they concur, the resume will be forwarded to the hiring manager. I got an email to set up On Site interview within 4 days. On Site Interview: Started at 7:45 am and ended ~5:00 pm. Consisted of an hour long seminar about my past research and a total of 10 1:1s. This is excluding the lunch interview with three engineers. So actually a total of 13 people interviewed me. They took me to a fab tour before my talk. Variety of questions - ranging from just the job description and small talk to rapid fire sessions. It was a mixture of behavioral and technical. Hiring manager said i would be contacted with the decision within 2 weeks. Yet to hear back from them!!

I got a phone call after 8 months from an online application. I had a 45 minutes phone interview, technical and behavioral. Asked me to explain my research, how much time you have to spend to do any experiment, how some characterization techniques work. After three days, got an email saying they would like to have me on-site. On-site interview started at 8:45am with 1 hr technical interview with the group leader. Mostly I was explaining my research to him in a very simple manner, and tried to give broad application picture. He asked me how NMR works, what are conditions you change to make your expt work, how many people you worked with, so on and so forth. I had five 1:1(actually 2:1) interviews mainly consisting of questions like - what was the biggest challenge you solved?, did you ever had a conflict with your adviser or coworker?, how you train or guide people? Why not to work for any other Chemical company, why Intel? Weakness and strength? Can you work overtime? I had 1 hour talk which mainly consisted of people from my background (I think that's how Intel organizes the interview). Try to make a very simple and high impact talk, don't overload with data. Try to answer all the questions to the fullest. During lunch time, they gave us presentation on what they do and what we need to do. Last interview was with the area manager(at 4pm). It was mainly wrap up, no big questions, very short. Overall, Intel makes the interview process very friendly and relaxed(as most of the interviews were in cafeteria). I heard back from them after 45 days of my on-site interview, they offered me a job. Really good compensation!
