I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at v2 Ventures (Kansas City, MO) in Aug 2008
Interview
Interview is a convoluted process designed to understand every small item in your life from college through present time. They call base it off the book Top Grading. The core “threat” is they will call your old manager to see if your answers jive with reality. Turns out they never make reference calls, it is a hollow threat.
Take your time, make sure you are well rested and well fed, this is an all day affair.

Question 1
What were you expecting in college/1st job/2nd job/3rd job/nth job and how did reality match those expectations? This continues time and time again.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What problems or challenges did you encounter while managing a campaign and how did you solve it?
The interviews are difficult and long. They do extensive case studies. A lot of hands on tests with Excel. Many detailed questions about my past work experience and jobs. I spent most of the time with a single person and then spent 30 minutes with 2 other people. Overall very through and I'm sure they hire only good people using this process.
