Hey everyone! I've got a call scheduled with a recruiter soon for a DevOps Engineer role at Lam Research, and I'm looking for some insight on what I should expect. Specifically, I'm curious about a few things: what typically happens during the recruiter call, what the interview rounds usually look like (like technical screens, coding tests, and onsite interviews), and any tips you all might have for preparation. Thanks a ton for any advice or experiences you can share!

In a recruiter call, they usually cover your background, salary expectations, and your visa status if it's applicable. Expect them to ask why you're interested in Lam Research, but don't worry, they're not trying to trip you up—just making sure you fit the role before moving forward. After that, you can anticipate a technical screen where they'll likely focus on CI/CD, containerization, and incident management. Then you might face deeper interviews on system design and automation, so be prepared to share real-world examples of past projects, especially where you've dealt with scaling pipelines or reliability issues under stress.
Since this is an entry-level position, how many interview rounds should I prepare for?
