The interview took place by phone which I thought was pretty unfortunate. Audio quality would have been better over an internet video or audio call. Also would have been more personal. Asked some general questions and some engineering questions.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at ASML (Ames, IA) in Mar 2020
Interview
4 rounds, 1 HR, 2 tech screening, 1 final 6 hr interview with the team. HR asked basic behavioral questions and inquired about my experience with precision design. The 2 tech rounds were simple and mostly focused on solving vibration problems. The final 6 hr interview included a technical presentation and personal 30 minutes session with each engineer.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at ASML
Interview
Very ordered. Started with campus interview, moved to on-call HR interview. Then had an hour-long interview with a Team Leader, which comprised of answering basic design scenarios. After passing that, I had another technical phone interview with a senior architect. It was similar to the previous one, but going a bit deeper into the subject. Finally, I was called in for a whole-day on-site interview. This one was intense, and comprised of several different interviews.

They asked me to present during the on-site. Make sure it is a design project (for this role) that you worked on physically
