Interviewed Feb 2010 in Raleigh, NC (took a day)
The interview process was very unprofessional. I had been invited to come interview, but was not told that it was actually for a cattle-call open house. I had one on one interviews with 2 people who both did not even work for the branch that was doing the hiring and had no clue about the position it was for. After the second meeting, I was supposed to have a third one. As I waited a bit, the woman came back in and just told me that they were really busy and someone would get in touch with me. I knew it wasn't because I had interviewed badly nor scored badly, since I had seen the markings on the sheet that I was scoring highly. There weren't even any technical questions asked during either interviews, just questions about showing up for work and general work ethics.
The whole problem was that I had come from Mississippi to Raleigh, NC based on the company's recruiter saying that I was a good candidate and it resulted in a 30 minute shuffle with nothing to show of it. I still haven't heard back from them, and it has been a month.
From what I gathered, they were looking for people that they could work hard for little pay and anyone who had any intelligence would not go for that.

Interviewed Jun 2007 (took 6+ weeks)
Initial phone interview was fairly simple, just a meet and greet. The one on one interview assessed my personality and fit for the team. The manager was very personable and had already assembled a solid team of technical contributors. Also during the on-site visit, I had a group interview of some of the leads on the team. This discussion was much more technical in nature.

Interviewed Sep 2008 in Lewiston, ME (took a day)
It was a very simple process. You walk in the reception area and ask to apply. They immediately have you fill out a pre-screen questionnaire which asks general questions about your job history, education, and shift availability. Next they have you take a few skill tests that test your typing speed and sales aptitude. If you pass the skills test they arrange for you to interview with a supervisor on the campaign they are considering hiring you for. If your interview goes well, then you are hired and they inform you of when your training class begins. Next they hand you the form needed to go perform your drug test. If you pass your drug test, then you are truly hired.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Richmond, VA (took 2 weeks)
After submitting my resume the HR representative asked me to answer some specific questions about my skillset. Next a phone interview with the hiring manager was scheduled. The hiring manager asked more questions about my past experience and about my technical knowledge. Next came an on-site interview with the hiring manager and some potential peers. Again, more questions about my experience and technical skills.
