Interviewed Oct 2011 in Pasadena, TX (took 2 days)
Initial meeting at Career fair on Campus. Followed up with interview with Engineer with the company and straight into an interview with a HR rep. HR rep was all behavioural questions. Then second round was 2 more interviews with senior engineers. Great interview, relaxed, discussed how I wanted my career to evolve, answered all my questions. Albemarle are a great group of people, made sure the job I wanted, in the location I wanted was the issue.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Baton Rouge, LA (took 2 days)
Recruited at my college career fair. There were 2 days of interviews, each 1 hour long. The first day was largely technical, with questions abut Raolt's law, thermodynamics, and reactor design. The second day was behavioral. The work culture doesn't seem fast paced. Unique coworker relationships can be built, though, because the company is so small and everyone works in teams. There is great visibility to the management in baton rouge, too, where the CEO walks through the same halls as everyone else.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Orlando, FL (took a day)
The interview consisted of three part which included a section of technical question, and situatinal question and q&a about the company. Overall the interview try to establish my background as an engineer. However, the interview is hard because they dont care about how much knowledge you have but if you can answer their specific question. For example they want you to remember a concept whether or not you understand it. Overall, its a good experience if you can remember what they ask, you should be in good shape.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Baton Rouge, LA (took 1 week)
I received a response within 24 hours to my online application and scheduled a phone interview. The interviewer was friendly but knew very little about the position I was interviewing for and was not able to answer some specific questions I had.
I had no response after my interview so I called the number I was given to inquire. I was told that I had "passed" the interview and just wait to be contacted. It was several weeks If not an entire month before I received the formal rejection email.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took a day)
The interview at the beginning was OK. At the end, the recruiter lady let me ask her questions. However, she let me ask only one question and finished the phone interview in a hurry. I checked online application status right after that. And the status said they have found somebody else more suitable for the job.

Interviewed Mar 2009 in Baton Rouge, LA (took a day)
I got the interview through the college career website. I went to the initial interview and it was two 30 min interviews with two people from the company. One was a process engineer and the other a process manager or some sort. It was mostly just small talk and it was different in that they didn't ask the usual behavioral questions that companies normally use.
