Interviewed May 2012 in El Segundo, CA (took 2 weeks)
I submitted an application online and was contacted by HR on the same day to schedule a phone screen with a junior member of the team for the next day. DaVita moved really fast in recruiting process. I had two 15 minute phone screens with a Analyst and Senior Analyst in the following 2 days after I submitted an application. These was mostly fit questions "Walk me through your resume", "Why DaVita?", etc. I was contacted again by HR within 24 hour of my 2nd phone screen to schedule on-site interview the following week. Again, extremely fast process. They flew me in to LA for a whole day of interviews. It consists of four 1:1 interviews, 45-minute each, with 4 Managers of the Special Projects team, mostly behavioral questions "Why DaVita", "What are your greatest accomplishment", and discussing my previous experiences. One Manager gave me an estimation type case interview. Overall the managers are really nice and down-to-earth and we had good discussions about the position and my background. I agree with one previous interviewee that a number of the "Managers" and "Director" seemed to be rather green/young for a management role, more accustomed to being rock star individual contributors who were rewarded with a promotion.
The 4 morning interviews was then followed by "lunch" with 2-3 junior analysts (fresh grads) ... where they grilled me with questions about "Why DaVita?", "Tell us what do you think are challenges facing our company", "What do you do for fun", etc. I was given opportunity to ask questions as well during lunch.
After that I had 1:1 interview with the Director of Special Projects Team, where it was mostly industry knowledge questions, like "Tell me about DaVita industry dynamics", “How big is the market size”, “How many facilities/patients do we have?”, "Tell me what you know of Medicare”,”Tell me about our products and how they work - down to scientific medical terms.” Since I did not have any healthcare experience and did not delve extremely deep into healthcare industry during my preparations, I was unable to answer some of his questions. He then expressed his disappointment in me and concern about my level of interest in working for DaVita. Judging by how and type of questions he asked, I think the Director was really interested in finding out how candidates handle pressure, and hiring only people who is comfortable working for a demanding team leader and has background/thorough knowledge of healthcare. So make sure you thoroughly learn/prepare the technical medical terms and know the healthcare industry in an out.
Last 1:1 was numerical case interview conducted by the Senior Analyst. I was given a couple business performance numbers and asked to do some calculation using those numbers and talk aloud during the process of coming up with answers.

Interviewed May 2012 (took 4+ weeks)
After three phone interviews, there was finally a face-to-face. Oddest interview I've ever had. Not one question from them, and no answers to my questions... just what felt like evasion. Then, nothing. No follow up at all. There were only three of us by this time; surely a phone call or letter would be in order here?

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Irvine, CA (took a day)
The interview consisted of basic questions such as "how do you work in teams?", some multiple choice questions such as "which of these qualities are more important to you in a company employee?", etc. Although the position was for a Real Estate positions, I didn't feel the HR person knew anything about commercial real estate nor much about the company. She promised to get back to me within a few days and then I never heard back at all. Not even an email saying they moved on, despite a follow-up request by email from me. Not very professional, if you ask me.

Interviewed Mar 2012 (took a day)
I went to an open house. I met with a HR manager who screened my resume, gave me an overview of the position, and progressed me on to meeting with the Facility Administrator. She reviewed my resume, asked me why I wanted to be a dialysis nurse, and proceeded to tell me the progression of training. We concluded by her saying Recruiting will be contacting me.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Tacoma, WA (took 1 week)
Was called in to interview for the position and I had a well rounded conversation with the interview. It focused on all my experience, not just those of the last couple of years. The interviewer was pleasant and friendly and quickly let me know that they wanted me to meet their senior managers.
The second interview consisted of a panel interview and also was more conversational and non-threatening in style.
