Intel Software Engineer Interview Experience: virtual manager panel without semiconductor background

After a recruiter call, the interviews moved quickly but felt structured and organized. About a day before the live session, I got a brief call about my background, with a little casual conversation before the following day's discussions.

The next day, I had a virtual interview with the hiring manager and two other managers. It felt professional and straightforward. Each interviewer asked a couple of questions, mostly about my resume and how my experience connected to the role. I didn't have semiconductor experience, so they dug into how I'd approached my previous work and how it would translate to Intel.

By the end, it felt like a solid check of fit and communication rather than an attempt to catch me with a problem. I received an offer, and I felt relieved that my story and experience had come through clearly.

Location: Malaysia. Overall feedback: positive. Offer status: got offer.
