Interviewed Jul 2008 in Irvine, CA (took 3 days)
I found my experience to be different than most. Most people I found had very long drawn out interviews that seemed to take forever. I'm not sure of the value of such interviews, but I found many of the people at CG to be outstanding. That being said, after a few phone interviews, I had one all day interview and was offered the position.

Interviewed Apr 2009 (took 2 weeks)
applied through my school career center. received an email stating that a recruiter would like to meet with me. questions were what you'd expect in an interview - why do you want to work for this company? what can you bring to the com? strengths / weaknesses?... at the end of the interview, it was obvious i was not a good fit for the company (nor were they for me). recruiter was very nice though.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Irvine, CA (took a day)
An external recruiter arranged a telephone interview the hr specialist recruiter. The HR specialist was pleasant and efficient. Most of the questions were in the situation, tactics, action result format, with a heavy emphasis on resume review. Although she asked technical questions, her follow-up conversation indicated that she was not technically proficient enough to understand. This made me think that she was listening for a list of key words, or timing my answers. The interview also lasted exactly 30 minutes: the scheduled time slot. My external recruiter told me that "project experience was not exactly what they were looking for" but she was "a cultural fit."
My take, a large company with this many recruiters and this few jobs to fill needs to spend a lot of time interviewing, without necessarily hiring. At least they only wasted my time on the phone, not driving also.
