I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Folsom, CA) in May 2012
Interview
Was selected in RUSH hiring event which is for recent college graduates. Since I had graphics courses in my resume, I was called by 3 different teams for interviewing on the same day for graphics software engineer positions. One of the teams finally selected me :)

Question 1
No such question comes to my mind. Since I was applying for graphics developer positions, most of the questions were focused around graphics pipeline.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Intel Corporation (Folsom, CA) in Mar 2014
Interview
Had a phone interview with many small questions related to computer architecture, operating systems and programming. Then offered onsite interview.
Onsite interview was with 5 different people. Each kind of tried to cover different topics. Again questions came from computer architecture (i/o, memory hierarchy etc.), operating systems (cache consistency, virtual memory etc.), programming (c,c++,assembly). Last interviewer asked more general questions what would you do if you were in this case, what do you think about future of computers etc.

Question 1
Not about being difficult but they kind of tried to focus on and ask about things that I haven't mentioned in my resume or told them on phone interview such as virtualization, assembly programming etc. If you were looking for someone who already have experience with all of those you shouldn't have invited me for onsite. Or at least do not take them into account and look whether I can learn them or not.
