Interviewed Nov 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 4 weeks)
I was contacted by a recruiter and we chatted about my current situation, goals, skills, etc. After that, a phone-based technical interview was set up with someone in the same position I was applying for. That interview was about 30 min long and concentrated more on my "working" knowledge and projects rather than "book" knowledge of technologies. The next step was an on-site interview in the Chicago office where I met with 2 teams of 2, plus one of the executives. The first team concentrated on the technical side of the job, again focusing on the projects I had done and experience with certain technologies. The second team concentrated more on my soft skills, and culture-fit. The meeting with the executive was a combination of technical and culture, but he focused more on what I was looking for in a job and company. Very thorough interview process, but it helped me find out more about them, too.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
They have salary bands depending on the level and position that you are applying for. There was some room for negotiation, but not much. My only recommendation is do your homework on what you're worth and what others are getting for the same position.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a Group/Panel Interview and a Skills Test.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
I met with managers, senior execs, and subordinates or peers during the interview process. Questions on my resume and background, nothing too unusual, all pretty standard stuff. They expect you to know the technology on your resume, bring your "A" game, if you say it, you better be able to back it up, you will get called out on it if you try and fudge anything whatsover. The whole company is filled with really smart, bright people, and the interviews can be long and painful, which they then meet as a team or committee to discuss each candidate in depth, internally. The most unusual part of the interview process is that they provide you with a blank laptop and you are asked to write a short essay, the topic was something along the lines of "What role will technology play in the future?" or "What does technology mean to me?". They are asking more because they want to see that you can formulate thoughts and express them well in writing, rather than what technical knowledge you are able to write down.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
They didn't really negotiate on the salary, but I was able to ask for 3 weeks of vacation rather than 2 and got it. The interview was the fastest I've ever had, we went from a phone screen with a recruiter, a long / onsite one day interview, and an offer a few days later.

I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview and a Group/Panel Interview.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Irvine, CA (took 2+ weeks)
It was a lengthly interview process consisting of a couple of phone interviews and a half day in office experience of panels and one on one interviews. I also had to take a short written test to prove my writing ability. The people at Acquity Group were very professional and seemed to have fun while also working hard.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Very hard to negotiate. Everything is based on base salary. Overly large importance placed on previous base salary with no considerations for bonus. Bonus structure is very complicated and doesn't seem to add much to overall comp.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, a Skills Test and a Background Check.
