I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Entegris (Pune) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview process isn't appropriately designed. They will first conduct one round of interview, ask you to wait for indefinte period of time. Then suddenly, after a month, they will reach out to you saying that there are 4 more rounds of interviews. After scheduling these 4 rounds, suddenly they will consolidate one of the rounds and make the count 3. You appear for the 3 rounds and then wait for the feedback. Again, after two more weeks, you will receive a call stating that there are 2 more rounds (F to F) and a virtual one. You again appear for these 2 rounds making the total count of interviews to hit 6. After that you wait for an indefinite period of time to get a feedback. For me, out of many candidates, only 5 were shortlisted for the 2th to 4th rounds out of which only 2 including me were selected to appear for the 5th and 6th rounds. It has been >90 days that Entegris is still not sure whom to select! This is ultimately and aggressively disappointing. I would not recommend to go for interviews with this organization as it ultimately leads to sheer disappointment, wastage of time and effort you put in for those interviews.

Question 1
Describe how you justified a cyber security project to the stakeholders.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Entegris in Apr 2026
Interview
So judgmental and biased. Seems like the candidate was already selected, and it's from one race. They did not even review the candidate's resume. It is better before the interview, so they know who they are interviewing.

Question 1
why are you thinking good for this position? tell us about your background
Was contacted for a phone screen 1 week after the application was submitted and was only provided less than 24 hours to schedule (for the next day at 3pm). Almost 3 weeks later I find I made it to the next round to speak with the reporting manager and was scheduled for the same week. Was told several times I was overqualified but that they wanted someone that could grow within the company. I was told that I will be coming on site to interview with 8 people from different groups 2 people at a time and was scheduledfor the next week. They focused on how I didn't have prior experience in semi conductors despite being a niche field and didn't seem to accept that I have been applying to this location for years and that this was the first time I made it to the interview.
