Third, impress your interviewer of how much you knew about Lithography & chip making theoretical & actual experience. Fourth, don't worry they'll hire you if you're white & came from the navy even though you don't have any idea how a laser or a control systems work. They hired a lot of navy experience guys without enough experience & knowledge in electronics principles so be proud of your military service."

What don't you like about working at ASML?

"ASML employees especially management are mostly racist. I was the most senior lithography service engineer in the Bay Area & I saw how the supervisors there rooted out all asians & middle eastern employees when economy started to dwindle. The supervisor Alen Worth laid me off instead of lesser experienced person because I am asian & not born in the US of A. People who cannot even understand how control systems work were kept while I who trained even senior levels was kicked out. I was the last asian who got laid off by David Knott & Allen Worth whom I used to train myself. Connecticut manufacturing management is even worst. I was collared by one senior engineer there because I am asian & wondering & looking how other equipment were put together when I was training there. I wanted to fight but all white workers were watching & I am worried they were all going to beat me up real hard if I fight. I don't recommend working for ASML if I (an asian, hispanic, or any minority) can find any place to work."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Management needs to look deeper on the behavior pattern of their supervisors, managers, & employees. Racism is an illness of society that prevents talented individuals to contribute their best for the good of the company. It is a terrible tool used by incompetents & misfits in the company who wanted to get ahead or propagate into their careers without exemplary skills & knowledge as compared to their minority counterparts."
