I submitted my application through their website and sent a copy to a friend who works there. He told me it should be 2 pages and highlight the projects I had worked on in school (i.e., special projects, class projects, etc.). So I redrafted my resume as my friend suggested, and he turned it in to Human Resources for me.

A couple of weeks later, I was notified by email that I would be having a phone interview.

I studied up on digital logic, microelectronics, and did a little research on NAND Flash memory technology prior to the interview.

The interviewer never once had to ask me questions like why I wanted to work at Micron, why I would be a good fit there, how and when I had shown initiative in the past, or any of the usual interview questions of that type because I took every opportunity to sell myself by telling the interviewer these things without being prompted.

The only technical questions I was asked were specific to NAND Flash memory, the thing I spent the least time studying. But I was able to reason out answers to questions I did not really know the answers to and never once said, "I don't know."

I didn't really feel the interview went as well as it could have, but I guess I did alright because two weeks later I got an offer letter and will work 13 weeks this summer.

Why does a NAND memory cell have a finite number of write/erase cycles?
