I applied through university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Dallas, TX) in Sep 2014
Interview
3 rounds, 5 weeks. The hiring team was contracted from TI. It was a terrible experience. Communication was minimal throughout the process until a couple days before the event. The final interview was in Dallas and it was a half day of meeting employees. Started at Career Fair, then a phone interview and finally the onsite interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time that you worked on a team? They also had a group interview where we worked with a team to build a bridge out of duct tape and phone books, a team of interviews watched how you communicated with your team.
It’s quick and easy. Started after a week of interview and testing. The interviewers are nice too. Good experience for an entry-level job. Happy to do this for my first corporate job.
I applied online. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (Richardson, TX) in Feb 2023
Interview
Two video calls, both focusing more on what kind of person I am rather than technical skills. 2nd interview did go more deeply into my resume, was asked to explain my projects in detail and the challenges/successes I experienced with them.

I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Texas Instruments (College Station, TX) in Jan 2023
Interview
They asked me a lot of culture questions and a few technical questions about classes I had taken. The culture questions were a lot of asking about times I had messed up and then fixed it, or projects I had done.
