1 test with aptitude and technical questions.
The aptitude questions were moderate and technical questions were easy covering many basic concepts.
Technical questions were from fluid, thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, mechanics.
2 interview rounds-very difficult
1 technical and 1 hr interview
Interview questions were from basic knowledge about subjects like thermodynamics, fluid
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Applied Materials in Nov 2010
Interview
The interview was thorough and more on fundamentals. For solar cell engineer position, prepare the manufacturing and characterization processes. Be thorough on what you have learnt. Even if we learn only few techniques that is ok but need to know it thoroughly.
Interview was tough and expect difficult questions on all the basics of manufacturing and characterization techniques.
