Interviewed Mar 2011 (took 5 weeks)
The process started out seamlessly through a national recruiting firm. My HR contact was exceptional in that she kept the communication flowing and was attentive to my needs. Following the screening interview and work sample submission, I had a phone conversation with the hiring manager. My future boss and I simply clicked. After working for three weeks to align appropriate schedules, the agency flew me out with nice accommodations and started a full day of interviews. I liked the role, fully enjoyed the client and loved those with whom I would work. The verbal offer, written letter and my acceptance all came the day after interviewing.

Negotiation Details
Thank goodness for companies that are flexible. Everything I needed to make a smooth transition and relocate to the area were fulfilled. There were some benefits of the job that are non-negotiable but whatever mattered most to me was worked through.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Background Check.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Warren, MI (took a day)
The HR department is great and I was treated well by the representative. My experience with the IT department interviewers was less impressive. The interview was very brief with two sets of interviewers. I wasn't asked any specific technical questions. One of the interviewers commented several times that I had a wide range of skills and it was amazing how much I had done in 20 years so I thought maybe they weren't asking me questions because they felt it wasn't necessary. I tried to talk about some of the projects I had worked on so they would have something to evaluate but I got a call the next day saying I didn't have enough experience. This may sound like sour grapes but the interview was confusing in retrospect because I have abundant experience in the skills listed in the job description. A waste of time for all. Perhaps it was just a bad fit for other reasons. On a more positive note, it was cool that I was notified, and so quickly.

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took 2 weeks)
A very moody person calls, giving condescending remarks to everything answered. Did not sound like they even wanted to be giving the interview, so why even make the call?

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Detroit, MI (took 2+ weeks)
Talked to the recruiter and hiring manager via phone. Seemed to get positive response and was told they would like me to talk with other team members. Haven't heard anything since and it's been about two weeks. I've followed up with the recruiter and haven't gotten a response. Guess they extended an offer to someone else and don't want to tell me.

Interviewed Feb 2008 (took 4 weeks)
Although the recruiters were aggressive in setting up conversations, the process took about a month to complete. The agency is slow to move on hiring. I spoke with four individuals, one phone interview and three in person interviews.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Warren, MI (took a day)
I was contacted via phone to set up a phone interview with a recruiter, then they sent an e-mail to confirm the time, day and the person I would be contacted by. I completed the phone interview and was told that after phone interviews they would choose a selected number of people to come in for an interview in person. I never heard back from anyone via phone or e-mail after that.

Interviewed Aug 2008 in Warren, MI (took 1+ week)
Very fast. I had spoken with recruiters for them before so it was a very quick process. The recruiter seemed very happy to finally be able to find me a position in their company. I was told that if I could not be there next week I would most likely be passed up for the position. Be ready to move and move QUICKLY if you accept a position with Campbell-Ewald.
