Interview
Very negative experience, would prefer to not even have an interview if the hiring manager is not even going to listen to me. in a 1-1 interview he continued to pay attention to other things and seem like he wanted to end the interview as soon as possible.
Did not feel as though I was given a fair chance as a candidate. Do not know if recruiter and hiring manager are on the same page about what would be discussed in the interview, but most of the topics I was told to prepare for were not discussed by the hiring manager.

Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at TSMC (Phoenix, AZ) in May 2026
Interview
Gave the first round: Mostly Behavourial questions about the projects in my resume. Some situational questions. Interview lasted for around 30-35 mins. level of difficulty of the interview is moderate.
Very information and insightful into the industry and role that was being interviewed for. Interviewers were extremely approachable and made the interview process non-stressful. Questions that were asked were not the hardest but mainly gauge the thinking process of a potential candidate rather than judge them based on their previous works and educational background.

Question 1
How to ensure a stencil is correctly aligned to a wafer
The interviewer was very nice and the position job description was very detailed. The interviewer asked very detailed questions related to the project. He will ask you some classic interview questions in conjunction with your project. That's why it's important to be well-prepared regarding the program.
