I applied through university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Texas Instruments
Interview
I received my initial interview on-campus. They were extremely friendly and high energy. About 2-3 weeks later I was asked to complete a series of behavioral questions using an online portal. About 1-2 weeks later I was invited to fly to headquarters in Dallas, TX for a two day interview session. The first day consisted of a panel/info session, followed by a networking event where I was able to speak with the CFO and many other high level employees, and finally the day wrapped up with a dinner. The second day I had two 30 minute interviews with 3 people in each interview. The candidates were then put into teams to conduct a team activity. We were given arts and crafts material and asked to construct a table, manage a budget, and present our ideas. The rest of the day we got a tour of Dallas and a tour of one of the factories.
Questions: Mostly standard behavioral questions with a few technical questions.

Interview
It was good. People were nice. Got to the final round, you get to have two sessions of interviews with different people. After, you have a case study which you solve collaboratively with other candidates.
The only negative thing I would say is that they could communicate a rejection, specially to those that made it to the final round.
