"Axcelis Technologies was my first professional job right after college. Of all the Engineer Position I've interviewed for after I decide to pursue with different field. I find Axcelis interview was hard. They would literally make you take a test to see if you know your basic electronic components like all the GATES (AND, OR, XOR, NAND). So you better come prepare. Another thing, they also look at your skill of troubleshooting because the keyword for final test is 'Troubleshooting'."

What don't you like about working at Axcelis Technologies?

"There were so many Final Test Engineers, and that the reason why it is hard to grow in that company. The things you do for the company did not get recognize and they supervisor or the manager overlooked your performance. When semiconductor industries were continueing to peak out, they surely send majority of the Final Test Engineers out to the field. But when things are a little bit slower, there are competition between engineers so that they would be pick to be send out to the field."
