Interviewed Feb 2011 (took 5 days)
Enter a room with an HR person and two people. Repeat two times. Each time, the theo people ask questions they define as "situational." You answer. They take notes. Second half in each interview deals with "technical" questions. example "Tell me of a time you learned something. What was it, what did you do, and so" No problem with the question. When I asked them to carify the question, they replied similar to "I think this questions means..." If they did not know, how was I?

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Maumee, OH (took 2 days)
I had a phone interview with the hiring manager. They asked me to drive to Maumee OH (350 miles), I asked that I be flown. They then changed to another phone interview ith two technical folks. After that I was asked to meet the hiring manager at another location 175 miles from my house which I did.
I was told that I had done well at the interview and I would receive an offer on Monday. On Tuesday I was told that they had hired someone else.
So far they have not told me if they will me for the gas or milage for the interview. The hiring manager will not answer my emails.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Toledo, OH (took 1 week)
I had 2 phone screens with 2 different people and a follow-up face to face. Very intensive discussion regarding my purchasing background and the current state of condition/challenges for supply chain within the company. Each screen lasted an hour. The face to face was another hour with one supply chain member and one internal customer. I was never quite sure what the expectations of the job was. The job description was vague enough and it was never clear to me what role they wanted the candidate to fill. I left the interview with a good feeling but uncertainty of what and who they really wanted in addtion to what they wanted to accomplish.

Interviewed Dec 2010 (took a day)
I did the first round interview at school, then was asked to come back for a second assessment up in Detroit. One part was very open ended and regarded the case study given to you before the interview. The second part was a behavioral interview with two people. This interview was repetitive and asked questions about teamwork multiple times. Also, for a company that prides themselves on great and unique workplace culture, they didn't even take us there. I thought that was odd? Overall, it wasn't a good fit for me.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Toledo, OH (took 3 weeks)
I was called two days after I applied to schedule a phone interview, and spoke to an agency recruiter in CA. About two weeks after the phone interview, someone in TX contacted me to schedule an onsite interview in OH. He gave me a few time options and slotted me in. When I arrived for my interview, there was no one at the front desk, and the phone list did not include the names of the people I was scheduled to meet with. Luckily, there was another person waiting in the lobby that knew the people I was supposed to meet with and said they will be right out.
The interview consisted of two panel interviews (2 people per panel). The first asked basic interview questions (3 strengths, 3 areas of improvement, Microsoft Office experience, Career Highlight, Project that went astray, etc.), the second interview had me walk through my resume and asked “would you rather do this or that?” questions.
It seemed like two the interviewers were trying to impress the other interviewer by asking tricky questions they read in a book.
I received a phone call the week after notifying me that I was not selected for the position.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Maumee, OH (took 2 days)
My resume was passed on to their recruiters from my school and a day later I received a phone call from their H.R. Manager. She asked me a few fit questions, then informed me that she would contact me in the next few days. The very next day she called me back to schedule a 1:1 interview for the following week. The 1:1 interview consisted of two 45 min interviews, one with the H.R. Manager and one with the Global IT Controller. Most of the questions were behavioral and a few technical questions. Not too bad.

Interviewed Dec 2008 (took 4 weeks)
I live about 2 hours away. I applied online, so the first contact for HR based in Toledo was through e-mail. There was an questionnaire attached and to be answered and emailed back. After that I received and email requesting a phone interview. It lasted for about 10 minutes. She basically just read a list of about 10 questions pertaining to team-work experience, and "what did you in a certain situation" kind of questions. I waited about 2-3 weeks before I got a call/or email regarding a 2nd Interview. This time the interviewer were going to be 2 chief engineers/ which were the guys that were going to be supervising me if I got the internship.
I guess after they discuss the interview with HR and liked me, I got the job!
Negotiation Details
I was taking one class, and they were very flexible with letting me take time off for it since the internship required 40 hours/week.
