The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Hillsboro, OR)
Interview
I submitted my resume at a job fair and was contacted when a position opened several months later for a phone interview. Phone interview lasted ~45 minutes and was mostly behavioral questions and an introduction to the job tasks. I was invited for a site visit a few weeks later and did a full day interview with multiple current employees as well as a research presentation. Half of the interviews were pleasant and mostly focused on behavioral questions. The other half were very difficult, consisting of lots of high-stress questions about problem solving and technical questions about coursework from graduate school. I imagine their purpose was to push me to my intellectual limit and to see how I handled stress. Several people talked about the constant stress of the job and how tricky it was to maintain work/life balance. They did not make it seem like a desirable job, especially given how demanding it was.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Hillsboro, OR) in Oct 2017
Interview
I applied in August of 2017 though the company's website.
Had a phone screen during 1st week of September , and flew me over in October 2nd week.
I had 11 interviews which are 1:1 and about 30 min each. The interviews consists mostly of repetitive questions based on situational scenarios, ownership of equipment and very few technical questions. Had lot of learning during these 1:1 interviews and taking printout of PhD presentation slides helped a lot (thanks to glassdoor). 45 min of Phd thesis presentation to 5 engineers and questions were really basic.
Overall, most of the Interviewers were friendly.
almost into a week, I got an automated email saying that the position has been cancelled which I interviewed for.
I felt bad for not receiving an official communication from either HR or the PTD group saying that position has been cancelled or something instead of sending an automated email.
Overall- its a great experience.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Portland, OR) in May 2017
Interview
The interview process was quite straight forward. Intel does a really good job when it comes to interviewing. There was a presentation for 1 hour which was mainly on the research. In this presentation, they try to see the analytical skills and also what kind of approach a person takes in research. Some of the questions were quite intense and the panel asked so many questions that I was unable to finish my entire presentation. Even though the questions might make you furious, keep it calm. After this, there was one on one interviews related to technical stuff and behavioral stuff followed by a tour of the facility and the lunch. After this, there will be a managerial round which is like a mix of all these roles. If you know your research well enough you should be fine.
All the best!!
