I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Austin, TX) in Dec 2012
Interview
Three 45 minute interviews on-site. The interviewers were very knowledgeable and aware of the position they were hiring for. There was a lot of scope to optimize my answers and that made it easier as time progressed. I was taken out for lunch and there were short breaks between each interview. All three interviews were technical interviews with some questions about my past projects.

long but effective. 4 rounds of interviews ( quiz questions, computer architecture, past projects, leadership experience, basic algorithm questions, coding, etc.) each last 40 min. results came back after 10 days
Five engineers, a manager and director asked medium level engineering and architecture questions including proof of structured coding and design skills. Each interviewer had varying questions. They rated at 0 (won’t work with candidate), 1 (adequate) or 2 (exceptional hire) for a team survey of votes to compare multiple candidates.
