Interviewed Sep 2010 (took 2 weeks)
Approached by company recruiter and had several phone interviews plus one in-person interview. Interviewers were skillful, respectful, and warm. The process gave me an excellent impression of the company.

Negotiation Details
Negotiated a good salary and bonus package, but they cut the bonus percentage in half after I was there for 3 weeks. So I don't think the bonus offer was honest and in good faith.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Background Check, a Drug Test, a 1:1 Interview and a Phone Interview.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Westminster, CO (took 3 days)
Company was very quick to respond throughout the process, after submitting resume a few email exchanges were made, phone interview was set up then an on-site interview took place. The on-site interview lasted 6 hours and was interviewed by 8 different people throughout that time. The people seemed 'normal' for the most part but there were areas with the nerdy and quiet stereotypes.

Interviewed Nov 2010 (took a day)
this is a very simple interview, just by telephone. Some simple question was asked for JAVA like what is the difference between abstract class and interface. What is the difference between Queue and Stack, something like this. Furthermore, there are some non tech question like introduce myself and what is my plan for the future.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Dallas, TX (took 3 days)
I am still in the interview process, but I am getting a bad feeling about Avaya after my experience and reading GD. I was asked to interview on weekend. That's my personal time. I said ok because I think I may like to work for Avaya. Now I am getting follow up calls on Sunday, that's really my personal time.
The phone interview was very casual, asking me about myself and my previous experience in telecom. Lasted just over a hour. I have some follow up interviews scheduled and a drug test.
On one hand it can be seen as they are very busy and need to hire, good, but I don't want to be a 24/7 employee. Hard work yes, indentured servant no.

Interviewed Sep 2010 (took a day)
Just the first basic interview to check the dates and jobs on your resume. Asked what you did at each company, what your salary expectations and when you would be available to start. Recruiter sent me their benefits ppt as a heads up of what to expect when joining avaya.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in Atlanta, GA (took 1 week)
I was surfing the web for jobs in the Call Center market and came across openings for Avaya. It required that I have a login in and password and account before I proceeded. After several attempts I was able to create an account. Once in the site I had to find the original job I was interested in. There are hundreds of jobs listed there. After finding the job I followed instructions and upload my resume and cover letter. Then I was required to answer several pages of questions. After the application was complete it took 2 weeks before I was contacted to set up a phone interview.
