Interviewed Apr 2010 in Denver, CO (took a day)
Received a call from the manager to set up an in-person interview for the following week. Met with the manager and two senior software engineers. The entire interview was slightly less than an hour. Discussed my employment history, and answered some general Java and C# questions. Very personable interviewers. The work environment seemed pleasant enough, with individual offices and cubicles. Did not receive an offer, but was in the group of finalists. My impression is that this is a good place to work, and I will look for future openings.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Denver, CO (took a day)
I was familiar with the school/staff as I had already interned there. I was called by a teacher at the school who thought I might be interested in the position and encouraged me to interview. I was given a few days to schedule the time that worked best for me.
I was interviewed by a panel: the school principal, three teachers, and one parent/ PTA member. Upon arrival I was given a list of about 5 questions to answer, and given about 2 minutes to think about my answers out in the hall before they called me in to talk. The questions were along the lines of: what will you do to foster student interest?; what will you do to motivate students?; how will you monitor progress?; what other resources will you use to ensure students' success?; Describe a time when you had difficulty teaching and had to change your approach.
The principal called me later that night to offer me the job.
