Interviewed Oct 2009 in Fort Worth, TX (took a day)
What interview?? It like interviewing for "widget" maker in a factory. The technical phone interview was simplest in my 10+ year career, with only a few questions about AD. The face to face was.... well less than professional than the telephone, and should have been a sign of what was to come.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Dallas, TX (took a day)
There were 3 interviews, one hour each with people at various capacities in IT. Most questions were centered around past experiences pertaining to dealing with difficult people, solving difficult problems, time management, and leadership roles. Each interviewee is accompanied by an escort to guide them to each interview and provide any assistance necessary. After the interview process there is a case study where they pose a problem and have the interviewee compose a solution. This portion of the interview process is done with all candidates in the same room. The case study is for one hour. Lunch will be provided by the company at a local restaurant. After interviewing the candidates will meet with the IT Manager or someone of comparable status. Then each candidate will depart and be taken to the airport.

Interviewed May 2010 in Dayton, OH (took 1 week)
I feel like the online application took forever to complete. Then I received an email stating they were holding interviews on this day at a hotel. I showed up, and there was a room full of other applicants. Interviews were held round table style on a first come first serve basis. Every applicant was asked to answer only 5 questions and then we were told we would receive an email letting us know if we got the job or not. My only concern with this was the hourly rate, and that once I got there I found out they were looking to fill ramp agents instead of desk agents. Even though they both fall under the same category, the job description did not state anything about being a ramp agent. I was not interested in hauling luggage onto airplanes.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took 4 weeks)
Round 1: (45 Mins)
There was a 1-on-1 competency and skills based interview. It was with the hiring manager. Most of the questions were from the CV and the interviewer wanted to get an indepth look at what I had done and to what level. It was interspersed with questions and interest linked to the Airline Industry.
Round 2: (Full day assessment center)
Total 6 interviews with all senior managers of the team. One interview was a written case study.

Interviewed Apr 2009 in Fort Worth, TX (took 4 months)
The interview process consists of three phases
1. First round phone interview by an analyst. More on technical side including questions on background and past experience
2. Second round phone interview by a manager. More high-level. Questions on background and experience again but more about testing fit with the group.
3. Onsite: a 1-hr presentation to the group + 1 panel discussion with principals and senior analysts + 2/3 vs 1. with managers + meeting with managing directors.
Overall, the experience was good and people were very smart but friendly.

Interviewed Nov 2009 (took a day)
It was a standard interview process with the interviewer going through a list of questions and taking notes after every answer. I got the feeling that they were quite experienced with the process as they had a standard set of instructions to the candidate. They were interviewing a lot of candidates and they said that the process would take 2 months. The structure of the interview was clearly laid out with details about next steps provided.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Dallas, TX (took 6 weeks)
I was contacted by phone within a few days of submitting an online application. I had previously interviewed with this company about 18 months prior and had been offered a similar role which I had declined to accept another opportunity. I had two separate phone interviews with the same recruiter and was invited to their office to interview with the hiring manager and team. Twice I was put off on setting a date, but finally one was set and I arranged time off from my current position (they were not aware I was searching) to travel 1500 miles to the interview. The evening before I was to depart I was contacted by a travel coordinator and advised the job was being filled internally. This probably explains why they kept stalling the invitation to interview in person but I was rather annoyed they hadn't been more up front with me. I hear great things about this company but I won't waste my time pursuing any future opportunities with them.
