Interviewed Sep 2011 (took a day)
Got a phone call requesting a relatively immediate interview from a member of the operations team (i had no previous contact from them, for example with an HR person), so I had to schedule for a weekend phone interview.
After briefly describing their responsibilities -- test/verification-- went straight into technical questions regarding basic device physics -- transistors, bandgap, fermi level, etc, and was a bit caught off guard.
Was expecting hardware type topics (since I applied to mostly these positions) so I was not at all brushed up on some of these fundamentals. Interviewer was not very friendly or helpful and was very condescending when I had trouble remembering some of these topics since it had been a year since i had taken a related course. Know all your basics and you should be OK

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Sunnyvale, CA (took a day)
Asked about the CUDA hardware, GPGPU. Scenarious where I could get a segmentation fault, with no error in the code during compilation, what could be the reason. There is enough space, and space is not the issue.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Sunnyvale, CA (took 1 week)
I was interviewed for a software position for summer internship. Got three phone interviews. First one was with the manager and he gave a brief description about the position and the work and some behavioral questions. After a couple of days, I got an email from him that I passed his screening and he asked me to schedule interviews with two other team members.
The interviews with the team members were purely technical. I was asked to code in a shared document. They tested on bitwise manipulations and assembly language. Though I didnt know exact mnemonics, but the interviewer said he will look at the logic and not the instructions.
The interviews were not very difficult, easy enough if you know some details of C and computer architecture. I didn't have any onsite interview perhaps because it was an intern position thats why.
