Interviewed Jan 2011 (took 4 days)
Had to interview with 5 different people. Most of them try to talk you out of wanting the job so in turn you have to overly explain why you want the job and why you should get it. One guy started my interview off by telling me that my college choice sucked and that he'd never hire someone that went there. I did get hired in the end, but some of the questions and comments made were VERY unprofessional (a lot of cussing) and left me with a bad taste in my mouth. I accepted the offer because I was fresh out of college and NEEDED a job.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Fairfax, VA (took 2 weeks)
There are 3 phases of the interview process. It begins with a phone interview that takes about 20 minutes. They'll ask you basic questions as to what you know about recruiting, why you're interested, and whether or not you're interested in sales. Sales is key to Aerotek's survival. Next is the panel interview with includes interviewing with 2-3 account managers. They are gauging your decision making skills, your confidence/assertiveness, your motivation, and of course... whether or not you are looking to go into sales. Then, you are given an opportunity to shadow recruiters and managers for half of a working day. You will get see how the operation runs and look at the Aerotek culture. Finally, it all boils down to the interview with the office's director.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Sacramento, CA (took 4 weeks)
Spent an hour on the phone with an internal recruiter, then had a 1:1 with the DBO for an hour and last had a panel interview for an hour. Know the STAR method. People seemed nice, office was new and I don't understand how you work in a team but your fighting for your commissions with your so called team member

Interviewed Mar 2012 (took 2 weeks)
There are 4 steps to the process: phone interview, in person interview, group interview and am half day shadow. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BLACK SUIT FOR THE IN PERSON INTERVIEW whether you're a guy or girl. Make sure your motivation is money and they know it and stay energetic.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Rancho Cordova, CA (took a day)
I had a great interview with two of the Account Managers in the office as the Director was away at a client meeting. It was an informational interview, but they are also screening for personality, knowledge of the company and past experiences. The company culture is very down to earth and fun but also very competitive at the same time. They want to make sure that the person is able to deal with a high stress and fast paced environment.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in White Marsh, MD (took 2 weeks)
The phone interview was pretty standard and the one on one interview was a bit intimidating but the overall experience was eh. I felt like the interviewers were apathetic.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 2 weeks)
Went through a phone, first, and second interview. At first I did not think the staffing industry was for me, but I was sold on the second interview when you shadow a recruiter and get to see the day-to-day tasks.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Des Moines, IA (took 3 weeks)
I applied online for a recruiter position at Aerotek. A couple days later I have a phone interview with a lady asking basic question. She was trying to get an idea of who I was. Then I got invited to go in to one of the branches for a face to face interview. From there the interview face to face was pretty laid back. He asked me a couple question like what motivates you and also why are you interested in a sales position. Overall the people I interview with were very friendly. I am glad I got a chance to interview with Aerotek.
