Interviewed Nov 2010 (took 1 week)
I was called by the assistant account manager for a phone interview then she scheduled me for a one on one interview. When I arrived at the district office I was given a one on one interview and a drug test. I was then assigned a recruiter whom I had to track down several times to give him a copy of my HS diploma. After finally getting in touch with my recruiter and completing my in-processing paper work I was invited to come to my actual worksite for another interview with the actual account manager and to tour the building. Easiest interview ever more like a conversation. I was told on the spot that I had the job.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Denver, CO (took a day)
"Mr Smith, I have a site you're gonna love, it's Monday through Friday 2p to 10p at $12 hour'. I went to the interview, was told "We only have part-time at $9 hour. I was drug tested (negative), and told to go to a 12 hour unpaid training.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
Three Reasons; 1.Lonka (recruiter) lied to me about wages and salary. Lied to me about hours, and wanted me to go to a 12 hour training session and not get paid for it, which my attorney (Colorado Labor Board) told me was "illegal".

Negotiation Details
They will not negotiate for hourly positions. You can try, but the rate they offer is probably all you'll get, and it will be disappointing.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Austin, TX (took 4 weeks)
First had a pre-screening phone interview which during that interview was told they would schedule a phone interview with the Area HR Manager. Then had phone interview with Area HR Manager (lasted 20 minutes) resulting in asking me to come in for face to face interview. Had face to face interview with the same Area HR Manager at the Austin office, was told that would be a final panel interview if I made it. Within 2 days, got called back to have a panel interview with 4 people. Lasted about an hour, and was told the Area HR Manager would tell me the result the following week. I NEVER heard back from her, and left her a message after waiting the week and still never got a response. It was really weird and gave me my final opinion of the company so it is a blessing in disguise.
