Interviewed Jun 2010 in San Francisco, CA (took 3 months)
Applied through CS website and received call from HR two days later for the initial screening interview a few days later.
After screening interview another phone interview scheduled with managing director.
This interview was rather mundane, and the interviewer certainly gave the impression of not being all that committed to holding the interview to say the least, might as well have put the phone on speaker and wandered off for all the attention that was being paid.
I remember asking one question about the prospects of the position (seeing as this was a new venture for CS) only to receive the reply, ah well if they don't carry on with the project then you will just stay here doing 'something' like this other guy has.
Was asked to send in an example of previous work and they would get back to me in due course with the next phase.
Well, that never happened. Blessing in disguise looking back at it all.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in San Francisco, CA (took 1 week)
I interviewed with three people in the department I was applying for, including the manager (hiring manager). I definately met all of the job requirements and I felt the interviews went very well. Unfortunately for me, the job was offered to a former employee.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in San Francisco, CA (took 3 days)
I applied online and after 1 week I got an email from HR. She wanted to set up a screening interview.
HR called me next day. Then there was a Technical phone interview from the team. The person who called me said I was selected for the phone interview and they will do 2 more interviews. (May be I heard it wrong). I haven't heard back from them yet. But All of the interviewers were very and I was very comfortable and positive.

Interviewed Dec 2008 in San Francisco, CA (took a day)
Telephone interview was done with HR. Started off with a lot of basic questions...tell me about yourself & why you are interested in this position. Moved onto more situational & behavioral questions, how would you handle fraud related situations, tell me about a time you really shined on the job, what motivates you, salary range you are looking for.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in San Francisco, CA (took 1 week)
Had a phone interview with the recruiter. Subsequently, the recruiter set up a in person interview with the hiring manager in San Francisco. The facility was nice; not atypical to most offices. I met with the hiring manager and a Senior Manager. The hiring manager was engaging and asked relevant questions. The Sr. Manager asked some more behavioral questions.

Interviewed Mar 2009 in San Francisco, CA (took 6 weeks)
They called and did a phone interview, after a couple weeks called back for 1-1 interview. They were very polite, and I thought I did well, then I hear nothing nothing nothing for weeks, until I finally get a email saying no thanks. Since then, no matter what job I apply for there I never get a call, I feel like I did something terrible and now I have a black mark on my record and no matter how qualified I am I will never get another chance...
