Interviewed Sep 2009 in Dallas, TX (took 2 weeks)
I was contacted by a B&D recruiter. She held a phone interview which lasted about 30 minutes. Next, was an interview with a local sales manager. This was very basic; nothing overwhelming. That afternoon, I rode with another manager to visit one of the local accounts I would be managing; we walked the store and he described what a typical day would be like. 3 days later, I was contacted to schedule an interview at the home office in Baltimore Maryland. They covered all expenses. A group of 50 people were brought in to interview for several positions nationwide. This was a 2 day event concluding with a round robbin 1:1 interview process with several HR managers. The day I arrived home, I was contacted and offered the position.

Interviewed Mar 2010 (took 2 days)
Got an interview with the company. The interviewer mis scheduled me so I ended up missing the interview. He called me and said that he messed up and that he wanted to talk to me. So I had an interview the next day which went very well.

Interviewed Oct 2009 (took 2 days)
This is your basic 1:1 behavioral interview. Interview questions included: "What did you do to prepare for this interview?" "What does integrity mean to you?" "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" "What do you believe are some of your strengths?" "How do you deal with conflict?" etc. Those that pass the first round of interviews are usually called back for a second 1:1 interview previous to selection.

Interviewed Mar 2008 (took 2+ weeks)
I had a phone interview with a recruiter and he passed me onto the company. I had a day of panel and individual interviews where the questions were both standard interview questions and technical pnes. I think if you are competent for the job and have a good personality you should do OK.

They recruited at my MBA program and gave a great presentation on the company culture, sucess, and products. Interviewed once on campus, and then went to Towson for a panel interview.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Was unable to negotiate and they seemed very inflexible. They prided themselves on hefty bonuses above salary, but as the economy went downhill, the hefty bonuses stopped and the lower salary became a greater and greater concern.

Interviewed Oct 2009 (took a day)
The interview consisted of behavioral questions such as.. tell me a time when you did x. There were no questions asked about my resume. Most of the interview was technical questions, like an oral accounting exam. The interview was divided so you would meet with two sets of interviewers for a half an hour each.
