Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 3 months)
I was initially interviewed prior to a job being available. Then I had a several months long correspondence via email. When the position became available I was asked to apply online. At that point the hiring manager set up a 1:1 interview where he was less than truthful regarding the comp plan. I was offered the job a week later contingent on passing my background check and drug test.

Interviewed Jun 2011 (took 2+ weeks)
I arrived for the interview early, my interviewer showed up 30 minutes after the scheduled time. She showed up in sweatpants and a tanktop, and asked numerous inapropriately personal questions. She informed me at the conclusion that I would not be a good fit because I am not personable enough. I am sorry if my marital, parental, and housing status are none of your business. Not to mention that she actually asked how I managed to afford the tuition for the college I attended.

Interviewed Jan 2009 in Spata, Attica (Greece) (took a day)
I had this interview almost 2.5 years ago. I could say that it wasn't as I expected due to the fact that it was fairly informal and very easy. Well maybe this occurred because I was still at college back at this time. I applied for this part time position online and next day i got a call for the interview. Around two hours later I had an appointment with the HR recruiter. I was asked 2 questions in Greek regarding my knowledge about the company and then suddenly i was asked two questions in English regarding my familiarity with computers.The next part of the interview, was to type a paragraph at MS word as fast as I could and the same person timed my effort. During the same day i was informed that I got the job.

Interviewed Sep 2010 (took a day)
I applied online through my university's career portal. Application required a resume and a cover letter. I received an email a couple days later for a phone screen. It was a typical phone interview that lasted 45 minutes. First 30 minutes was dedicated to resume screen and 1-2 behavioral questions. The last 15 minutes was dedicated to a market sizing exercise.

Interviewed Nov 2008 (took 2 days)
Interview with the hiring manager was done on the phone. Pretty basic questions but more oriented towards the role. The role was more geared towards sales force automation and reporting. He asked me about my previous background, achievements and my familiarity with sales reporting systems.
Was straight forward and it was very reassuring that I got a call 2 hours later informing me that I had been selected. Pretty informal and non-bureaucratic organization.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Plantation, FL (took 3 weeks)
It was good - It took a long time because most travel for work and it was hard to coordinate the timings.
An offer was prepared for me but they had to put it on hold because of the hire freeze they recently had. Even though the problems being faced were in a different division it is their company policy that the hire freeze be done company-wide.
The phone interview was to Germany where they have the Headquarters. Approximately about 9 interviewed me. I didn't have a problems with that. They wanted to make sure you are a fit.

Interviewed Aug 2009 (took 3 weeks)
All who interviewed me were really nice and respectful.
Only one interview they were not there on time. I was.
The interview process was long because they travel frequently and those that had to interview me were frequently our of town. They did make effort to have as many interviewers together at the same time so that I wouldn't have to return more frequently. The phone interview was from Germany where their main headquarters is. They had an offer for me on the table but were unable to proceed with the hiring process b/c a hire freeze was made effective just then due to the closing of one of their businesses. I know it was true b/c it was public news. Even though the department was not affected, it is their company policy to extend the hire freeze to all divisions, also considering they may give the job opportunities to someone they had just laid off in the division that was being closed.
