I posted this up not because I am 'money-faced' people.I just wanted to know whether is it worth for me to go for a try since the job is more related to IT field. I am a fresh graduate in E&E and is the agent find me for the interview. I don't know what to request and what to do.....feel so lost......sigh...They want me to give respond whether to accept it or reject it by tomorrow....omg...really lost... I just scared I miss the chance and will regret for it. If they don't tell me the working site is in intel, I really won't consider and headache about it now. Should I demand a little bit more like 2.1 or 2.2k for that? The money is really important for me since I have a bunch of loans to pay back..... Lost...lost....lost 1. Intel is a high-stress company. The attrition (cabut) rate is one of the highest. 2. I wouldn't say the work is IT related. 3. Intel pay is more than that. QUOTE Lastly, I wanted to know whether this job - Validation Engineer have a bright future.....What I am doing there??? There are a few LYN members who are intel validation engineers. I can't give out the names though (I am not one BTW). But almost everyone starts out in validation before branching out.

That's y they probably reduce their salary range.....what I heard is Intel freeze their headcount to bring in new ppl alr.... We just hired some GTs (trainees) and AFAIK the pay has not changed. threadstarter: what type of position is it? Sounds more like green badge which is not real intel staff.

Would there be any problem for that? HELP HELP HELP thanks for those giving me advice Green badge == contract worker attached to external vendor/supplier (i.e. Manpower, Kelly etc). Intel pays the contractor, the contractor in turn pays you. None of the usual intel emp benefits i.e. stock options, study loans etc. You accept -> got chance to be permanent. You don't accept -> no chance at all unless you join as permanent directly. If you perform there is a chance to be converted to permanent but depends on other factors (headcount, HR directive, luck, boss like you etc).
