Jobs at Intel no experience

Jamesyboid88 · 31-03-2014 5:49pm #1

Everyone is telling me to apply for intel for a job. I have no experience working in a place like that. Would anybody have any idea if there is any jobs there that would suit someone with no experience. And not a janitor job. Thanks

delboy87 · 31-03-2014 6:35pm

I would like to know that too

To work for Intel you need a college degree, to work for their contractors you need technical qualifications.

Jamesyboid88 · 31-03-2014 6:48pm

Cheers for the reply I was doing data entry for a web developer, I'm unfortunately on the scratcher now, I'm just desperate as my girlfriend is expecting an other baby. I've tried everywhere

delboy87 · 31-03-2014 7:01pm

Tnx for the reply. I have a bachelors degree in IT.

@Jamesyboid88

Congratulation mate!

I would also like to know how to get access to Intel HR to send a CV in on spec. I am a qualified Accountant with 10 plus years experience. Does anyone know if the have a recruitment agency working on site?

Uncle_Joe · 03-04-2014 1:21pm

Yeah, I am newly graduated with an MSc in Computer Science and I can't seem to even get a look in at Intel or anywhere for that fact (lack of experience :-/) so I would love a route to get my CV pushed up the chain if at all possible!

Ok - so you clearly have some expereince doing something then.

Why don't you want a janitor's job?

On this note, check out ISS at http://www.ie.issworld.com - they do the wide range of non-IT jobs in Intel and HP. Ranging from security to janitorial duties, and everything in between.

Intel Ireland's recruitmenr isn't even on site any more, it starts of in Poland now. Best best finding a mate whos an Intel employee to refer you or even better if you know the hiring manager.

Out of that, you've to go the sam route as most people.

Your forgetting the former RPS, now Noonan Technical Services and Air Products who also provide technical services on site.

In fairness to dvc, it was a decent list.

I was thinking that I could add a few more as i was walking down to the sub-fab, PJ Hegarty are another one

Mycroft H · 10-04-2014 12:14pm

FST technical services as well. Forgot about those lads.

Unfortunately Intel employees like to take advantage of their "hire a friend" scheme so jobs are rarely advertised.

It's crazy. Finished my undergrad BSc (hons) last June and have had absolutely no joy getting in anywhere for lack of experience.

Did a six month internship which doesn't seem to have changed that..

Very disheartening.

Have started applying for general admin jobs and (and much lower) now since I don't have the money to emigrate.

Uncle_Joe · 11-04-2014 8:59am

I'm getting a few interviews lately with good companies, and that's because I'm reassessed how I applied. No guarantee of a job but getting to interview is clearly the first step.

My two cents here, but you just got to design a good cover letter that outlines your skills, your aspirations (without going overboard) and how you can benefit the company. If you have any experience at all, write a short succinct piece about how it can be relevant for the job you're applying for - if it doesn't seem relevant, make it relevant. Page to a page and a quarter max for the letter. Tailor it for each specific application. Same for your CV.

I mean you've got great qualifications and that internship too. I believe that would be an asset to a company, but you just got to get past the HR person screening CVs and I think you'll be getting interviews after that.

For their manufactuering technician you don't need technical experience, or at least didn't when i worked there a few years ago. There was a woman in my induction training who was making the move from retail. All training was provided on site.

That said, it was monotonous, boring work in a very uncomfortable environment.

Thanks for the positive post! I have been let's say, experimenting with my cover letters a little recently but still don't seem to be having much luck. I used to be a recruitment consultant years ago and feel as if I have a reasonable amount of know-how when it comes to writing cv's and cover letters.

I am concerned that having only graduated last year and turning thirty this June, that employers are just not keen on the idea of employing someone 8 or 9 years older than the typical graduate for developer roles.

Uncle_Joe · 11-04-2014 12:20pm

ah, well then you have perfect knowledge of industry then!

I'm 34 and getting interviews!

That's not necessarily a bad thing: choose your friends carefully.

When I worked there a few years as a manufacturing technician, no skills were needed. There was a woman on my induction course who was making the move in from retail.

For the new fab you need to skill up to degree level, for 24.2 you don't need a college degree, technical diploma is sufficient.

Experience alone will still get you into Intel. Know of recent cases across 10, 14 and 24.

Does anyone know if intel are interviewing much at the moment? I applied for a equipment tech. job last month and haven't heard anything.

I've heard of people being called 12 weeks after they applied. They then heard if they were successful 3 weeks after it.

I worked for Aramark Ireland in Intel for the last 2 years and I would highly recommend to NOT WORK there or for them as a matter of fact.
They prey on the younger staff as well as overworking you, no O/T (even though you'll work it) plus the complete lack of respect.
If you want a job in Intel though, I'd recommend trying BAM or Mercury.

WillM87 · 19-07-2014 8:31am

Ardmac PCI will be hiring again soon I've heard...

Hi all ,
can anyone tell me if a Higher cert in Mechatronics will get you in the door of Intel or other companies.
I think I really need to be in an Engineering /Technician role to justify going on to complete the ordinary degree as mature student p/t.
Any info on companies that might be hiring or willing to take on Higher cert holders, inexperienced in Engineering ,would be very welcome ,thanks.

Short answer is yes, I know guys with level 6 cert gained in 2014 who were hired by Intel this year as techs. They are currrently advertising for techs with level 6 and 7 qualifications on their website.

Long answer is maybe but the majority hired for thiese role would be level 7 (apply anyway though). Chances of success are greatly increased if you also hold a technical trade or good work experience but theses are not prerequisites. You will notice that graduate manufacturing technician role has been advertised on and off under different job numbers over the last year or so and sometimes requiring level 6,7 and sometimes level 6,7,8. These are for different departments within Intel, it seems impossible to gauge which ones though.

To design chips for Intel you need a degree. To be a manufacturing technician(Man. Tech), you need zero experience. You will get on-site training.

Mechatronics is exactly the kind of qual. Intel look for when hiring technicians. Preferably level 7. They are interviewing for techs this week (again).
