Interviewed Jan 2012 in Bedford, OH (took 6 days)
Initially I was contacted for an interview by HR via email. Set everything up, and as the time grew closer it seemed the interview schedule fell apart. The total process took nearly a week, as everyday someone cancelled their portion (6-8 total interviewers). It was actually quite insulting. Half of them were late, if they came at all. Of those I actually met with everyone was incredibly intelligent and kind, but I was quite perturbed at how they chose to conduct/execute the interview process. It was as if they couldn't be bothered. As for the interview itself, I felt the questions were thought provoking, and followed a good style of interviewing. They were all behavioral based, and intended to gauge responses. Overall I was disappointed, the company did not come off very professional. Waited about two months, and decided to ask the HR rep if I should plan on hearing anything back about the job. SEVERAL days later she replied that they would know that week, so I would also. That was a little over a month ago, Oh well...

Interviewed Oct 2010 in Bedford, OH (took a day)
Lack of explanation as to what they wanted in position. They basically said you have to be able to perform the duties of the job with a minimum of supervision. The position requires a bachelor's degree in a science related field, although they will interview those with prior experience in clean rooms. The interviewer asks questions from a piece of paper. It is a behavior based interview that is designed to see if you can communicate well and demonstrate past behaviors that fit well with position. If you are not a strong communicator, it may be held against you.

Interviewed Jan 2009 in Bedford, OH (took a day)
I received an initial phone interview which was pretty standard (why are you looking, skills, experience, salary, etc). I heard back a few days later and was asked to come in for a face to face interview. I'm lucky that I have learned from past experience and asked who I would be meeting with and how long I could anticipate being there - so I took the day off of work when I learned I would be meeting 6-8 people.
It was a great introduction to the company. The facility is nice - much larger than I ever expected! Very clean, newly remodeled, comfortable. Everyone was professional and very courteous. I met with business unit leaders from several different departments, which gave me a great feeling for the culture, the opportunity, and the needs of the organization. They asked a number of difficult behavioral-based questions (examples of times I had managed projects or encountered a difficult employee, etc.), but also gave me time to ask questions of my own. It was nice because it was definitely a two-way street of conversation, versus simply question-and-answer style interviewing.
I was not fortunate enough to receive an offer of employment, but I would have likely accepted if I had. The company seems to be stable, forward-thinking, respectful, and opportunities for advancement seemed to exist, as I met many employees who had grown through the ranks. If you are called for an interview, take it seriously - dress up, prepare, and show a sincere interest.

Interviewed Oct 2007 in Bedford, OH (took 2 days)
I had 3 different 1:1 interviews that were between 30-45 minutes. I interviewed with the manager of my department, another IT department, and the Director of IT. The overall feeling of the interviews were somewhat casual and relaxed. They asked questions about my past experience and how I dealt with specific situations. The work culture is awesome. Everyone cares about what they do on a daily basis and everyone has some sort of moral standards, which seems very appropriate for a pharmaceutical business.
