I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bosch (Palo Alto, CA) in Oct 2014
Interview
They emailed me to ask my availability for a phone interview. I replied with a time and date they can contact me and the supervisor called me. After asking me about my school schedule, he sent me an email containing programming problems that I have to answer within a specified time limit. I sent my answers back and waited for him to get back to me.
