      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Applied Materials (Santa Clara, CA) in Mar 2025

      Interview

      First round interview was a 30 min discussion with the hiring manager. Most behavioral, discussed current research as a student and showed 3-4 slides on brief overview. Second round was a 45 min technical presentation (30 min) and Q&A (15 min) in front of the whole team. Questions were mostly related to research.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They asked me questions specific to my PhD research, such as details about the experiments I did and general conclusions/thoughts about my research.
