Hi,

Have an interview with Intel on Thursday for this job. Have prepared for the behavioral interview questions. Does anyone have any other advice for me?

Thanks!

Hey so did they let you know what the format of the interview is? I imagine you may be doing 2 interviews back to back, each interview being a one to one with an Engineering manager in there.

I done an interview recently for a graduate role. Was two interviews back to back. each about 45 minutes long. First part of the interview is very much behavioural questions. They have a sheet with different questions for each competency they are looking at, they pick a question at random for each compentency and you answer. Remember to answer with STAR (situation, task, action, response) as i am sure you probably already know. They do lots of writing.

Each interviewer then went into the technical side of things. First one asked me about my masters project and described it to him and the work I was doing and he grilled me on some areas on it to see how I would react. There will be a whiteboard in there so dont be afraid to get up and use it, I certainly wasnt.

Second interview asked some tech questions relating more to the role asking about control systems and how I would implement a system to do a particular task. Again used the whiteboard and articulate your though process.

Also as usual, know the company and what they do. Some points to hit on:

• Recent investment in latest generation manufacturing to be done in ireland
• Future of Semiconductors (high-k materials, tri gate transistors, Moore's law)
• Mobile industry and its impact on the semiconductor market

Edit: I got offered the job so must have been doing something right

Hi,
I submitted my CV to Intel yesterday for the position of Graduate Manufacturing Technician. I am due to finish my level 7 degree in May 2013 and am also a qualified electrician. Will this mean I'll get asked lots of electrical theory questions? I'll have to brush the cobwebs off my old Fás notes!
Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping they don't expect graduate techs to be experts!
