I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at NXP Semiconductors in May 2009
Interview
The interview consisted of 2 phone interviews as I was unable to attend a 1:1 (was in a different country). I applied via their website and received an email a few weeks later, which gave a day & time for the first interview. My first interview was with the Director of Engineering and the questions were mainly based on my CV and technical experience.
Strangely, the second interview was with an HR lady who asked me generic "Why did you apply for this job" type questions. Normally I'd expect this type of interview first.
I received a phone call a few weeks later and was told I got the job.
