Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 4 weeks)
I was 1st contacted by a recruiter via email. Had to answer some preliminary questions about my experience. Then a telephone interview followed by face to face interview with 4 different people. Lot of behavioral questions. Very targeted selection. The interview process took 4 hours included 1 hour lunch. Very good people; think they are looking for specific answer they like.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Gaithersburg, MD (took a day)
Interviewed over the phone for research associate position. Interviewer wasn't very outgoing or friendly; she was almost robotic. Asked to give brief overview of your resume, work history. Standard mundane interview questions such as, describe 3 strengths and 3 weaknesses. Rate Excel skills on scale from 1-10 and rate writing skills.
Be prepared to talk about your work history, your skills in health economics, Excel skills and writing skills. Have follow-up question prepared as well.
