Interviewed Feb 2012 (took a day)
The interview was with 12 people and lasted for a total of 4 hours. Some interviews were 1 on 1, others were with 2 or 3 people. 2 of the 12 were phone interviews, calling out to a different branch of the company. The rest were in person. Some people wanted me to answer technical questions about day to day details of the job, others wanted me to describe why I wanted the job. Overall it was a pretty standard interview.

Negotiation Details
Terrible... Point is Ansys knows it can higher immigrant graduates with higher degrees for less (All they are interested in is getting permanent residency). So there is not incentive for them to hire American employees who know their worth and would never accept a $60k cheque with a doctoral degree... Some of the associate positions pay more salaries elsewhere....

Interviewed Jan 2009 in Berkeley, CA (took 4+ weeks)
After a couple phone interviews I was brought in to the main office (near Chicago) for a full day interview. The day started with breakfast with the hiring manager. I gave a technical presentation of previous work, followed by a Q&A. I had series of 1-on-1 interviews the rest of the day. Some of these covered technical engineering issues, others were higher level discussions with more senior people. There was a group lunch at a restaurant in which I was asked a couple fluid mechanics problems.

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took a day)
Horrible!
The HR person was non-responsive right from the word go. After asking me what time was convenient and me picking a random date and time, he never even bothered confirming it. There was no response to any follow-up inquiries and worst, he was very rude and completely wrong about my information when explaining the reason for not continuing with me. I am positive that the manager did not get my correct info at all, and worse, I can't do anything about it.

Spoke with an HR rep. They asked me typical questions like "why do I want to work there", and "how did I find out about the job". They also asked questions to confirm many aspects of my resume.
