Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Kulicke and Soffa.
Mechanical Engineer
I had a phone interview with the internal recruiter, then I spoke with the director over the phone. After that, I had an on-site interview with the entire team, where I did a presentation about my accomplishments and some calculations on fundamental engineering.
- Could you tell me about yourself and your accomplishments?
Senior Mechanical Engineer
The initial HR conversation went well, but the hiring manager seemed impatient and moved on quickly without letting me fully elaborate. There was a basic engineering test at the end. I struggled with remembering formulas for the test, as I think many people rely on Google these days and don't frequently recall engineering formulas. The questions weren't overly difficult if you were a recent graduate fresh out of exams, but for a senior engineer, it's hard to remember very basic equations that haven't been used in a long time.
- Can you describe the most difficult problem you've encountered in your career?
Mechanical Engineer
So first, two of the engineers chatted with me and asked mostly about my experience and skills from my resume. They were super friendly and answered my questions. After that, they gave me a quick tour and explained the machines and what the intern would be doing. Then I had a short 15-minute test on basic mechanical motion stuff, like how gears and levers move.
- What are your career aspirations for the next three years?
