Applied Materials Interview Experiences
Hardware Engineer
Started with a 40-minute presentation and 20-minute Q&A. Met with 5 managers from different departments and 4 senior engineers. I was asked professional questions and also encouraged to ask questions. Overall, the experience was very good.
Engineering Co-Op
The interviewer was chill, but provided no feedback. He didn't ask many questions and didn't show interest in my responses. He asked some questions on the resume and followed up with some technical questions.
Mechanical Engineer
The interview process was quick. Additionally, it seemed simpler than others, but the questions felt like they did a better job filtering to the core of someone's strengths and weaknesses.
