I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Chandler, AZ) in Mar 2019
Interview
Onsite interview , was contacted by a recruiter on Linkedin , 2 45 mins interviews , very general , technical plus behavioral , they have packet of questions , for mat sci engg i believe those are the same questions. My slot had everyone- bachelors , masters , phd , experienced. First the info session for 30 mins then HR benefits , followed by lunch . During the lunch , the interviewers come and find you , you have lunch with them. Do no start asking questions the very moment. Let it be casual during the lunch. Talk with everyone.
Decision would be made in 2 weeks , even they know that the candidates are anxious . So waiting for the result now.

I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Albuquerque, NM)
Interview
Process begins with a phone screen with recruiter, followed by hiring manager discussion, then onsite interviews consisting of several one-on-one sessions, where candidates are usually expected to deliver a presentation.
It was pretty straightforward overall. They mainly asked questions about my resume, previous work experience, and the projects and research work I completed during my graduate studies. The conversation was conversational and focused on understanding my background and technical experience.
