Interviewed Mar 2011 in Long Island City, NY (took 2 weeks)
Found the job on craigslist - overnight computer operator $9/hr. When I went to the interview I was given a basic demonstration on the job. It was straight to the point, you just cut lines of clips of commercials and that's it. I was then interviewed by the supervisor. Very mellow people. She asked very simple questions nothing unusual, and none of those moronic retail questions. I've been so used to retail and sales that I expect those crazy interpersonal psychological questions about your personality and just weird things like 'what do you like to do on your spare time' and you will be judged for it - or 'name a time when you went above and beyond' like we all somehow blast in to space. Well anyways, she thought because I mentioned my writing/research skills and with my busy retail store background I would grow bored of just cutting lines so she asked if I would like to be a 'master coder' which involves transcribing the commercials and entering them in the database at $10/hr. I then sent my resume to the HR manager, she called me in for a typing test and grammar test. You had to have 35 wpm or faster for the typing test and pass a 3 page basic grammar and common sense test (spelling, punctuation, use of words). After that she asked a little about my background, why I left my job etc. Nothing intimidating and no attitudes what so ever I thought they were very calm and passive, which makes the nervousness of an interview situation fade away. And I forgot to mention that the first interview took place I think on a Thursday, and the second took place Wednesday of the next week. Then there was a little bit of phone and email tag going on, and I was finally hired the next Wednesday after which was my first day working. So a total of 2 weeks.

Negotiation Details
There was no negotiating it was a flat base pay, extra for overnight shifts and bonus hourly pay but I keep reading on here from other reviewers it's hard to achieve it. They told us that they are going to change it and make it easier to reach bonus pay next month or something like that.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview, a Skills Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Long Island City, NY (took 4 days)
Saw a posting on craigslist, sent them my resume. A person from Human Resources contacted me through e-mail and set up a time for me to come in for an interview. I interviewed with 2 people, they asked me some questions about my previous employers then told me about the job. The interview lasted maybe 10 minutes and it was over. I was contacted through e-mail again by Human Resources and was offered a position, I accepted and I was told when my start date was.

Negotiation Details
There was no negotiating for a coder position. Everyone makes the same amount no if ands or buts about it. There's a possibility that you might make up to 6 dollars more per hour but this is almost impossible for anyone working there to do, even people that have been there for years. That is unless you're good friends with management or you're some how cheating the system.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Sep 2008 in Long Island City, NY (took a day)
Hired off of Craigslist. At the office, I filled out a job form. The receptionist had me do a speed typing test on a computer program. The supervisor gives a quick interview, then hands out a written exam to test our grammar skills and knowledge of commercial companies.
