Interviewed Aug 2011 in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil) (took 5 days)
The interview process was quite simlpe: a phone screening, where basic information was exchanged, including intended salary; after that, I did a group interview with one of the managers and the recruiter. Finally, I did a phone interview with the person that was going to be my actual manager.
After a couple of weeks, I got a call with a quite decent offer.

I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview and a Group/Panel Interview.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Minneapolis, MN (took a day)
I was interviewed by an older hiring manager. The only thing resembling a technical interview was him asking me to rate myself on various programming languages. He then spent the rest of the time talking about how he was overbooked for the day and that he had lunch in my hometown once.

Interviewed Sep 2011 (took a day)
The position was for Audi support team which is provided third party via Dell. I applied online maybe a month prior to receiving a call from a recruiter located at the Dell headquarter in Dallas, TX. She called to describe the position and if I was still interested, schedule a phone interview. We scheduled a phone interview (she was more than willing to reschedule to accommodate), which was your basic phone interview. From there she emailed a link to IQ, Skills, and personality tests. She let me know if I passed I'd receive a call to let me know so and also schedule an on location interview. I passed and was called by a local recruiter to schedule a interview. I was emailed information about the interview process and the company. The on location interview was a BEHAVIORAL INTERVIEW. Long story short, even after studying up (as much as you can for that type of interview) I bombed the interview.
If you have any questions about something I'm sure I left out, just ask.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took 1+ week)
Received a phone interview. Told my information would be forwarded to the hiring manager and I would hear back by Thursday. I never heard back so I called Friday, then they said I would hear back by Monday at the latest. I never heard back so I called Wednesday and left a message that simply requested feedback good or bad. I did not get a call back until Friday that said you are a viable candidate but my current salary wasn't inline with what they wanted to pay for the position. I really felt this should have been discussed more in the first call, I knew I wouldn't make what I make currently and was willing to take less. After all the run around, it makes me wonder if a call back is worth it. Would management be the exact same way?

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Austin, TX (took a day)
The interview process is very focused on company fit. Most of the people that make it past the resume collection are chosen because they have the credentials. During the interview, they ask you standard behavioral questions that you need to prepare for to stand apart.

Interviewed Sep 2009 (took 2 weeks)
I was referred by a former employee at the place at which I use to work. I was interviewed first by phone and latter in person by three system admins and the head of the department. I had to take a drug test and go through a background check before I was hired. The back ground check included a check of my finances.
