Hi, my name is Barbara Storm and I have been with Intel for 10 years. I have been with the staffing organization since the beginning and currently work on the Executive Recruiting team, handling executive searches and senior level offers. Prior to joining Intel, I worked in the recruiting advertising field developing and implementing pro-active staffing strategies to support a wide variety of client needs. In addition, my experience includes workforce planning, staffing metrics and global staffing training programs in global markets.
I am a native Californian having lived in LA most of my life and attended UCLA. My hobbies include cooking, travel and spending time with my two big dogs. I look forward to blogging and connecting with you.
My name is Charlie Guenard and I am a Senior Recruiter with over 11 years of experience. I’ve worked in many roles within Staffing including a current stint as a Staffing Project Manager. I’ve been with Intel for just over four years and have shared and learned many best known methods (BKMs).
I am a graduate of the University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth with a BA in History. I was a teacher for over 5 years and taught in Shanghai, China and Yokohama, Japan. Though my experiences in Asia defined my personality and my life profoundly, I am a New Englander through and through–living and dying each Red Sox and Bruins Game. As further proof, despite living on the West Coast over 10 years, I still on occasion misplace my “r’s” when I speak, a unique linguistic characteristic of much of New England.
I really enjoy my job and the company I work for. Intel has open communication across all employee levels and the expectation is that if you’re the expert, it is your job to speak up and share and look for new BKMs. I am an expert in my field but I am always impressed with my teammates and the new things I learn from them. My experience with Intel employees is that they are often very friendly and expect results. I enjoy delivering and meeting their high expectations as do most Intel employees.
I hope you enjoy my blog post, feel free to ask any questions.
Hey all! I’m Cherizza Lundy! I joined the Intel full time in July 2009 but I had previously interned from May - August 2008. I have the unique opportunity to have three different jobs in HR through a 12-month period. My current rotation is in the Global Diversity and Inclusion group where I work on the marketing and communications team on various projects.
I moved to Oregon in July from Delaware. I went about as far away from Delaware as you can get besides Hawaii, Alaska and Washington! I went to Michigan State University where I double majored and got my B.A. in Human Resources and Psychology. Moving to Oregon was no big deal for me since I love to travel! In my free time I love going to the gym, playing various sports and just being active and healthy. I love music (constantly listen to it in my cube!), meeting new people and just having a great time! Hopefully you’ll have a great time reading my blog posts as I had a lot of fun writing them!
Hi, I’m Coby Schneider. I’ve worked at Intel for nearly 14 years, arriving just after I graduated from college. During this time I’ve worked in various capacities and also returned to school to earn my MBA. Currently, I’m a program manager within the US College Staffing organization.
I grew up on the East Coast (Delaware & Pennsylvania) and in Europe (France). I moved to Oregon for college and later met my husband here so I’m now officially an Oregonian! This is my first go at blogging, but I love to share my experience at Intel and thoughts on the Intern Program, so I look forward to our conversations!
I’m Dani Napier Harrison and I’m one of Intel’s Campus Recruiting Managers. I’ve worked for Intel for about 12 years. Sometimes it seems like I just started because I’m always learning something new.
I got my BS in Biochemistry from New Mexico State University and my MBA from Arizona State University. I am located at our Chandler facility right outside of Phoenix, AZ. I look forward to chatting with you on our blog.
My name is Erez Freud and I work in the Experienced Sourcing Team in Israel Staffing. I am currently a student, about to complete my BA in Psychology and Behavioral Science, and then will continue directly towards a combined MA and PhD in Neuropsychology.
I greatly enjoy working at Intel. Within my team I’m responsible for indicators and analyses of the effectiveness of hiring and sourcing activities including CV flow, yield from different publications and ROI of different sourcing channels. The sourcing groups base their sourcing decisions on this data.
I live in Meitar, which is located near Be’er Sheva (south of Israel), with my charming wife and parrot. I enjoy traveling, hiking, scuba-diving and reading.
Hello, my name is Huan Duong. I joined Intel in January 2007 as a staffing intern and then became a full-time employee in July 2007. I am now taking care of the College Program for the Intel plant in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
I graduated with a Bachelor degree in Mathematics and Informatics. I’ve had a great journey at Intel so far and have had a lot of opportunities to learn and grow in my career. Intel is building its biggest ATM factory in Vietnam and there is plenty of space for you to jump in and create the future of Intel and Vietnam!
In my spare time and on weekends, I enjoy taking aviation photographs and traveling. I am happy to share my experiences with you and answer your questions about Intel and our College program! I am looking forward to our conversations.
Hi, My name is Jason Patterson. I’ve worked for Intel for the past nine years. Most of the time was spent in technical recruiting roles and I am currently the Staffing Account Manager for our Digital Enterprise Group.

Hi, my name is John (Jianxun) Sun and I have been a CPU design engineer at Intel for over five years. Prior to joining Intel, I worked on high-performance microprocessor design with Hewlett-Packard for six years. My experience includes circuit design, electrical verification and silicon debug. In addition, I worked in the booming town Shenzhen in China for four years as an electrical engineer before I came to the US.

Hi, I’m John Zhou. I’ve worked at Intel in China for 3 years as Intel’s campus recruiter. It has been an exciting job because I can learn professional skills while being able to be around young people on campus.
I got my master degree in automation engineering from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC). In my spare time I like playing snooker. I look forward to chatting with you on this blog.
Hello! My name is Jonathan Harle. After graduating from Michigan State University with a BS in Resource Management, I fell into the technology sector and have been there ever since. Over the past 16 years (time flies…), I spent time first working as a network engineer and technical recruiter before becoming a project manager, working for a number of companies, including Sequent (anyone remember Sequent?), Lucent, and Genentech. I have been with Intel for the past five years, in the Software and Services Group. In my current role as part of the Group Operations team, I manage projects related to career development, hiring and ensuring that we have the right talent to meet the needs of our software business.
I call the San Francisco Bay Area home and like to spend my time biking, hiking, playing tennis and tinkering with cars… (Oh, and I’m a closet gamer!)
Hi! My name is Joyce Hadden. I joined Intel Corporation in 2006 as a Senior Administrative Assistant in the Corporate Legal Group supporting the attorneys and paralegals on the Disclosures and Securities Compliance team. I’ve provided administrative support to executives for 30 years at large corporations around the San Francisco bay area including Lockheed Martin, Applied Materials, KPMG and Electronic Arts.
My professional administrative career has taken many twists and turns over the years which I’m happy to say have led me down the path to Intel. The key to my success is the computer courses I took in college. Having strong computer skills is a definite plus in the competitive corporate marketplace of Silicon Valley.
In my spare time, I like to write fantasy stories for children of all ages. My hobbies include singing and dancing. I’ve performed in local theater musical productions and for special events. Entertaining people and making them smile has always been my passion.
Hey, hi. I’m Keith Pearce, I work in Worldwide Compensation & Benefits and am based in Folsom, California. These days, I’m working on ways to improve the perceived value of our pay and benefits programs. We have really great pay and benefits programs and yet, ironically, many employees don’t actually know what these programs are and how it all works. My focus is on finding creative, inexpensive ways to get the word out about pay and benefits, including social media, and short video. Before this role, I was the global program manager for the Focal program – our annual performance review program – for several years. I started at Intel in 1999 and have also managed teams supporting our corporate intranet and HR systems.
A California native, I grew up in the OC (Orange County) and relocated to the Sierra Nevada foothills about 20 years ago. These days, I have two kids in college, so I’m frequently reminded of my time at California State University in Fullerton and the challenge and awesomeness that is college. That’s one reason that I’ve mentored a few newly hired college grads and am happy to participate in this blog at Intel.com. I’m a productivity ninja, a British comedy fan, indie music follower, and enjoy annoying word play. I usually go with a double tall non-fat dry cappuccino, and have been told I have a cool hat.
Hi, I’m Larry Gonzales, a Sourcing Specialist for the Visual Computing Group (VCG) at Intel. I was born in Ohio, spent some time in California, and moved to Oregon five years ago. I’ve been working with VCG my entire 18 months here at Intel and it’s a blast! I have recruited for a number of game and visual effects companies. Graphics is my passion and I love it here in VCG.
I’m Maayan Zusman and I work in Intel Israel’s Academic Relations Group. I’ve been working at Intel for more than three years and during this time I have transitioned between several interesting positions. I’m constantly learning new things and enjoying it a lot!

My background is in HR management and Industrial Relations. I enjoy working in Human Resources. I have worked in many different functions within HR: Relocation, Employee Relations, Compensation and Benefits, Call Centre, College Sourcing, and now Staffing Marketing and Channels. My career path in Intel has been a very exciting one! In my spare time I relax in my vegetable garden and love spending time with my pets: my dog, Toby, cats, Tiggy and Boo, birds, Bluebell, Tick and Tock, my 13 chickens and rooster, Hector, who has the loudest crow this side of the Atlantic!
My name is Netta Cohen and I work at Intel Israel in a group called Academic Relations in a student’s position (that’s what we call interns here). My group is responsible for Intel’s connections with academia. In addition we handle different sourcing channels to recruit students and recent college graduates. We work with the Israeli academia to support Intel’s short and long term talent needs.
As a student I work on a lot of interesting projects with a lot of people from different groups. I am learning about the human resources world and parallel learning about the technologic world which makes me more professional in my work. I really enjoy the variety in my work and the work environment. In my spare time, I like to spend time with my family and friends. I like going on camping trips, reading, listening to music and more.
Hi! Apa Khabar? (How are you?) I’m Noor Asbakh Hamzah; my colleagues address me as Noor. I started my career at Intel in a technology development organization. I’m now venturing into a new arena as a College Program Manager under the Malaysia Staffing organization.
I got my Bachelors degree in Electric and Electronic Engineering from the University Science of Malaysia. I grew up in Ipoh, Perak and relocated to Penang about 15 years ago. I have a passion for technology, human behavior and quantum physics. I am a very active and energetic person who likes to explore new things.

Most of all, I love to travel and I enjoy snorkeling in some of the beautiful islands in the East coast of Malaysia. My most recent hobby is photography and learning Reiki (the art of self healing). I am very happy to participate in this blog. Who knows, perhaps this will become my latest hobby: blogging while enjoying my “teh tarik” (a special tea in Malaysia).
Hi! I am Priyanka Bhagat. I have been with Intel for around 4.5 years now. Prior to this I was working with Texas Instruments. I joined Intel as a staffing consultant and now I am the college program manager for the India site.
I am from “Ranchi”, a city in east India. I completed my MBA in HR and then started work. My career brought me to Bangalore and I have been here since then. I love this place! I enjoy working at Intel as it gives me complete freedom and is a great place to work. During my free time I paint and listen to music. I also have a masters degree in Fine Arts. Through this blog I want to talk to you about the programs we have at Intel India and help you chose the right one for yourself!
Hi, my name is Robert Toepfer. I recently graduated from Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN with a B.S. in computer engineering. I did two internships with Intel in Santa Clara, CA before becoming a full time employee in February 2009. I joined Intel in Hillsboro, OR as a member of the Rotation Engineers Program (REP).
I moved out to Oregon from a small town in the middle of nowhere Indiana with nothing but some clothes and my computer. Since joining the REP, I have worked in validation, research, and CPU architecture teams. I am happy to be here to share my experience as a recent college graduate (RCG) and as a member of the REP. I enjoy skiing, most sports, fantasy football, gaming, hiking, all music/movies/TV, lifting weights, and hanging out with friends.
Hi! I’m Sejal Patel (pronounced ‘say-gel’) and I joined Intel in 2008 as a part of the Staffing Marketing and Channels group. We help connect candidates with Intel and Intel with candidates using channels such as the Jobs at Intel web site, the Life at Intel microsite and now this blog…that’s us!
Originally from Toronto, Ontario (yes, I’m a real, breathing Canadian!), I graduated from the cornfields at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a B.A. in Communications. Soon after graduating, I made the trek over to Portland, OR to join Intel and love it here so far! Outside of work, I am a self-proclaimed Facebook addict and am slowly, but surely, finding myself Twitter-ing more and more as the days go by (Did I mention you can follow us on Twitter?). I love to dance, meet new people, try new things (especially food!), and spend time with family and friends.
Hi! My name is Stephanie Lee and I am a recruiter in the UK. I am based in Swindon but my work covers all of the UK as well as Poland. I develop sourcing plans to promote Intel as an employer of choice for student populations. Though I was born in sunny Bordeaux (Southwest France), I can’t stand wine (still trying to figure that one out.) I graduated as a Communications and Advertising major, back in the day. I joined Intel in 1997 and it has been a great journey ever since!
I am a 23 year Intel veteran with experience spanning engineering, manufacturing, marketing, events and communications. I’m responsible for “technology connections” with employees: touring Intel sites, talking with employees about Intel, its growth plan, and the impact Intel has on the world.
A native Brit, I earned my bachelors and masters degrees in Microelectronics Systems Engineering from Manchester University and I moved to the US in 1997. I live in Oregon and love to ride my bike, drink good wine, take photographs, and follow my great passion: travel. I have visited 42 countries spanning 5 continents. I have a little photography business on the side selling photos from my travels. I’m passionate about technology, and what it can do for people.
Hola! I’m Valerie Scarsellato, a sourcer on the Strategic Recruiting Team at Intel. First, I should clarify what a “sourcer” is so you don’t think I have magical powers like a “sorcerer”! A sourcer is someone that uses cool and creative techniques to research and locate passive candidates (in this case, for Intel). I have 13 years of domestic and international technical sourcing/recruiting experience in IT and Engineering. I’ve had the privilege to travel to Brazil and the Philippines to recruit in the past which I absolutely loved! I’ve worked in the corporate environment, as well as the agency world and have a very well-rounded background in full-lifecycle recruiting. I’ve been with Intel for nearly a year and enjoy sourcing for technical talent that will contribute to Intel’s success.
I’m originally from Pittsburgh, PA (Go Steelers!) but moved to Phoenix 10 years ago where I met my husband, the rocket scientist (it’s true and I love saying it), who is also from Pittsburgh! We’re the parents of an adorable Pembroke Corgi, Jibboo (we love animals) and enjoy traveling around to music festivals.
Looking forward to seeing you on the interwebz!
