Interviewed Jan 2012 in Hartford, CT (took 2 weeks)
Series of questions during the phone interview from the hiring manager. I had to have a discussion with her regarding the salary because I originally turned down the interview due to the low salary range.
The panel interview was difficult as the three individuals and they already asked me about the salary as the first question. The lead interview was condescending and they all appeared as if they didn't want to be there to begin with. I had already made up my mind in the first 5 minutes I wasn't going to work for this particular group of people.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Hartford, CT (took 2+ weeks)
Applied for the position in late January. Eventually saw system status change that I was "Being Reviewed". Received call 18 days after initial submission to come in for an on-site panel interview. I thanked the individual that called and extended my thanks to the team for their consideration in the process however at this point, I declined as I had already accepted another offer.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Hartford, CT (took 4+ weeks)
My interview experience was outstanding ~ one of the best I have ever had (and I have interviewed with lots of companies throughout my career.) I had a few interviews with the hiring manager via phone and then in person, and later I flew to Hartford for the final round of interviews. While there, I interviewed with four other senior leaders. Everyone was warm, respectful, and impressive.
My interviews were 45 minutes each, and I had a nice rest break in between each interview. Everyone stuck to the time schedule, which was nice. They also provided me with a small conference room where I could keep my belongings during the day and take notes after each interview. Interview questions were appropriate for my position, and there were no odd or overly-challenging questions. It seemed they wanted the interviewer to be comfortable.
Given my interview experience, I am thrilled about coming to work for Aetna.

Got call about my resume a long time after I submitted resume. Got face to face interview and then went back for second interview. Would definately dress very professional which you should for any interview.
Got called back pretty quickly and then the process rolled very fast. Nice folks and nice place. The building is huge so don't get lost :)

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Hartford, CT (took a day)
I was a candidate that had a phone interview with the hiring manager. The hiring manager liked me, however, even though I lived on the other side of the country, I had to travel in the winter and show up for what turned out to be 45 minutes of meet and greet. I also met with a manager's peer. The manager extended an offer which I accepted, for a 6 month contract. He was very nice and I was treated very well.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Hartford, CT (took a day)
I applied online and also had an internal employee send my resume directly to the hiring manager. The hiring manager called me directly (not HR, but the actual person who would be supervising me) within a few days to set up an interview. I had expected the typical corporate, multi-person interview that would take hours but it was just the one hiring manager and myself. This struck me as strange for a company as large as Aetna.
She took me to a conference room near the front lobby. She got lost getting there so she clearly hadn't been there before. She had a sheet of pre-printed questions that she said she had to ask me - HR type questions. "What is a problem you have encountered in your current job and how did you deal with it?"...that sort of stuff. This took about 15 minutes. Then she just said, is there anything else you want to tell me. No structure at all. She had no other questions for me at all, and didnt provide any info on the job itself until I asked her. She was not a good interviewer and I almost had to lead the interview.
I did not get the job, and I have a feeling that I was interviewed only as a courtesy to my employee friend that referred me. The job was listed as "closed" on the career website two days after my interview. It kind of felt like they already had someone picked out and I was interviewed as an afterthought, which would explain the low level of preparation on the interviewer's part.

Interviewed May 2010 in Hartford, CT (took 2 days)
Was fortunate to bypass initial first round interview due to employee referral. Interviewed with 3 senior level employees. Mostly behavioral questions with a great deal of conversation. 1 hard question was "give me the square root of 7"

I had the opportunity to meet with them at a career fair and they offered me an interview on the spot. During the interview they focused heavily on prior experiences. They also required me to attend a virtual information session conducted by a human resources representative prior to scheduling of the formal interview.
