Interviewed Aug 2011 in Santa Clara, CA (took a day)
Initial phone screen led to 1:1 interviews with 4 team members, including hiring manager. Both technical/science and generic behavioral interview questions. Advice to other interviewees: know your stuff for the particular area of R&D/engineering. Work culture is pretty typical: close within small group, and more distant in overall organization. I would say that Abbott is cooler than some other large medical device companies, but still lack the intimacy and nimbleness of start-ups.

Interviewed Dec 2009 (took a day)
Very structured and rigid. They want responses in a specfic format but they provide relevant details to help the job applicant prepare for the interview. The interviewer has a maximum of 1 hour to talk to you. So if there are 5 people, that's 5 hours of interview. It was exhausting because you need lots of examples and you have to practice your responses in the format they require. However, it was also the best interview because the experience forced me to better articulate my skills and experience. I didn't get an offer but I liked the people who interviewed me.

Interviewed Feb 2010 (took a day)
Attended the NSHMBA Conference and was asked to a 1:1 interview after talking with a recruiter on the floor. Interview stalls were extremely tight, and you could hear candidates being interviewed to the right and left of you.
Standard behavioral questions in addition to the "walk me through your resume" type questions.
