Entretien
Applied online, with a recommendation from someone in the department. Was contacted by a recruiter to schedule a phone interview which covered a very basic overview of skills/experience, and details of the position. The recruiter said he would like to have me speak with the hiring manager on the phone, and scheduled a time through email afterwards. Spoke with the hiring manager for about 30 mins, covering much of the same topics as with the recruiter, nothing technical. I was then invited to the Fremont facility to interview with 5 team members. The interviews were back to back, 30 mins each. Questions topics ranged depending on the interviewer but were mostly about experience, and very basic technical questions, nothing difficult. Did not receive and offer, but the hiring manager was honest to me about the reasons why. Interviewers and recruiters make you feel very comfortable during the whole process, and I even got a tour of the manufacturing facility.

Entretien
The interview process consisted of an initial recruiter screening followed by a technical panel interview with multiple engineers from manufacturing and process teams. The discussion focused heavily on real-world problem solving, data-driven decision making, and manufacturing concepts such as OEE, process optimization, and root cause analysis. I was asked to walk through past projects in detail, especially those involving throughput improvement, yield optimization, and cross-functional collaboration. The panel emphasized practical thinking, ownership, and the ability to scale solutions for high-volume production environments. Behavioral questions were also included to assess teamwork and adaptability in fast-paced settings.
Did presentation on project of my choice, then 6 30 minute interview with different people. Questions were asked mostly on the presentation & general concepts behind process engineering. Make sure you are thorough with your resume & concepts
