D1D Ramp Engineer Interview Experience - Hillsboro, Oregon
Process
There seemed to be quite a disconnect between the person who called me and okayed the interview and the person who would have been my boss if I had been offered the position.
The would-be boss was the first person that I interviewed with in person, and I think he first read my CV when he sat down in front of me.
His first question was: "You went to two top-notch schools. Why do you want this position?" Like he was honestly confused.
I knew that the interview was practically already over at that point.
Questions
The "Why do you want this position?" question threw me. When I was screened by the boss's boss over the phone, he didn't say anything about me being over-qualified for the job. I didn't think that I was, based on what I read in the job description.

Intel Work Experiences
- 4.0Challenging Growth, Sink Or SwimSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeHillsboro, Oregon, United StatesMay 31, 2022Pros: Intel is a fantastic place to grow. They generally treat people very well, and several policies are set in place to reward and promote women and minorities. Working at Intel is both challenging and rewarding.Cons: Although Intel has tried to improve its "one Intel" philosophy, its "sink or swim" culture is still very much there and will probably never go away. There is absolutely no "hand holding," and you will be expected to perform and take ownership with little direction and a lack of communication. Often, you will be expected to perform tasks with little to no knowledge of the subject or training. The unspoken expectation is somewhat cut-through, in that you are always expected to perform better than your colleagues in order to get promoted, or for that matter, even keep your job.
