Interviewed Oct 2007 (took 3 days)
I was impressed with the speed of the whole process. It was literally a matter of days between the time I was first interviewed and when they decided. I seem to recall getting the interview also didn't take much time.
The interviewers were conducted on campus. Over two days, I spent less than three hours in interviews that were given by three or four people.
I felt they asked relevant questions that gave candidates the opportunity to show that they were qualified for the job. No impossibly difficult puzzle questions. I was asked to write code. There was also a technical design question.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
No negotiation on compensation.
When you are on call, you can (and will) be paged at any time of day. I would put a high premium on having to take this responsibility.
Other Details
I got the interview through a College or University and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview and a 1:1 Interview.
