The interview process was strange and unprofessional. I spoke with three individuals: a sales assistant, the advertising director, and a sales rep. All the interviews took place in random spots around the office, and one was even held outdoors. It really felt like they were just trying to hire anybody quickly to handle a lot of work.

So the first part was with 3 or 4 people, I think from different departments, and I talked to them one on one. The first person I met with asked about my background and what I know how to do. Then they hit me with some technical questions and a couple of simple circuit problems. After that, the other people I spoke with just asked technical questions to check my knowledge of the fundamental electronic principles related to their specific jobs. I figure they were trying to see where my skills would be the best fit within their product teams.

The interview process was easy, but the onboarding took a bit of time. It involved a background check, a physical exam, a TB test, and a drug screen. This whole process, along with meeting training requirements, took about one to two weeks. However, I was hired on the spot after my second interview. No complaints, and I'm currently employed here.

I had a phone screen where they asked why I wanted to work for Maxim, what caught my eye about the company, and what my goals were. They also wanted to know how I found out about Maxim and what I already knew about it.
