Interviewed Feb 2012 in Bethesda, MD (took 2 weeks)
Applied for a position, but was contacted for a different position. Phone interview followed by 1:1 interview. Both were very brief, and to the point. Very quiet office, but it was a Friday.

HR moved very quickly and professionally. In this case it was a position they were looking to fill quickly.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Bethesda, MD (took 4+ weeks)
First had a phone interview with an HR recruiter. Was told at the end of the interview that I was being passed on to the next round.
Came in for several hours to do a...
panel interview with three of the position's supervisors
panel interview with five of the position's peers
2 hour skills test: proofreading, budgeting in Excel, and writing.
Called a week later to come meet with a Senior VP. It was more of a meet and greet than an interview.
Asked to fill out paperwork and provide references. References were emailed a form of questions to fill out about the candidate.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in Bethesda, MD (took 1+ week)
Online application submitted through "careers" page on website. About two weeks later I was contacted by email by a recruiter to set up a phone interview. The recruiter was pleasant on the phone and asked standard questions. After the phone interview she contacted me by email again to schedule and in-person interview I had an in-person interview. The interview was with the recruiter and the position's direct supervisor.
The office was very nice- modern decor with calming neutral colors.

Interviewed Apr 2010 (took a day)
Standard procedure: Receive a phone call to arrange an in-person interview, later confirmed via email. The interview lasted about an hour and consisted of a straight-forward discussion with two people working on the team (a manager and a project coordinator), detailing the duties of the job and how it fit with the applicant's background. The office was impressively modern and clean, and people seemed genuinely happy to be there.
