I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Applied Materials (Santa Clara, CA) in Jan 2020
Interview
It was a Manufacturing Engineer contract job. The interview consisted 2 rounds- one interview call with HR and one Technical interview webex call with hiring manager and team. The process was pretty smooth.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions related to Mechanical basics and past experience.
for me, there was 1 round with multiple Hiring managers infront of me. Each took turns asking me questions.
Took a while for them to get back about 3 week to 1 month
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself, and they asked me about the projects ive done
Two rounds, hiring manager and director, normally manager more important, as long can get a positive impression, should be more or less good enough for 2nd round. May have US interviewer for 2nd round, thus timing wise could be tricky
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Applied Materials (Tainan) in Mar 2025
