I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Santa Clara, CA) in May 2010
Interview
Started out with a phone interview.
Met with manager to go over the skills and suitable match.
Interviewed with each of the team member, manager, manager's manager and VP.
Met 1:1 with manager's manager.
Made a presentation open to general public.
The interview process was long but they were very fast and efficient about it. I visited Intel 9 times overall before getting the offer. I interviewed for a very specialized group and the questions in the interview were at no point difficult. They were more trying to see if I was the right fit as their requirements were very wide ranging.

The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Intel Corporation in Apr 2010
Interview
I had two rounds of telephonic interviews and then a onsite. Onsite interview is basically about surviving the day. One hour presentations and followed by several rounds of one to one. The questions were not too difficult. They are very professional. They informed me their decision in 2 weeks. They were ready to wait for nine full months till i was ready to join. Other companies i have interviewed with were not never showed such persistance to have me onboard.
