I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at AMD (Austin, TX) in Feb 2012
Interview
After applying online, received phone call a few days later from a lower-level employee with a couple of years experience. The phone interview was completely technical in nature, with no personality or leadership questions. Got invited to be flown down for an on-site interview, but was already in town, so was able to interview the next day.
On-site interview was four 45-minute interviews with employees of different divisions within the working group, each one-on-one, and all of them completely technical with no non-technical questions. They also provided lunch with entry-level employees from working group.
Was given the impression that would receive a follow-up contact within a few days but did not receive any contact until I inquired over a month later.
Overall, the people were friendly and the campus was nice. Got the feeling that people enjoyed working there.
