I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AMD (Fort Collins, CO) in Jun 2012
Interview
Hiring manager contacted. Setup time and date. Same time HR called me. Spoke with the hiring manager and in a couple of days got an invitation for onsite. They took care of my travel and stay. Everything was fantastic. Gave me an intermediate car and stayed at Hilton, right opposite to AMD.
The interview started @ 9, was welcomed by the HR and then the hiring manager. Each rounds were an hour long. But the interviews were so great that never realized when it was done.
Took me to lunch.
The interviews were very discussion oriented and they focused on how I was tackling a problem and building on a solution.
Overall I liked the interview process.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at AMD (Bengaluru) in Oct 2011
Interview
Referred by my friend through his manager to manager of that group. Got a call for intial telephonic screening then I got a call for fac-face interview. I was interviwed by 3 persons in 1:1 fasion for around 31/2 hrs.
They completely concentrated on Memory related stuff and ofcourse some questions repeated.
The best part of interview is thier way of approach, and the technical stuff in their questions. There was no HR round which benifited for say.
