Interviewed Jul 2011 in Longmont, CO (took 1 week)
Took about 4 days to get a phone screen with an HR droid. Complete waste of everyones time, he just asked me to regurgitate info from my resume. Next step was a phone screen a week later with hiring manager -- who never called. I emailed to see what the deal was, or if they wanted to reschedule, no answer. Based on my experience and other reviewers, DG does a horrible job of communicating with candidates.

Interviewed May 2011 (took 5 weeks)
The hiring process consisted of an initial phone interview, an in person interview which began 1:1 and then was expanded to a group interview, then a second group interview.
The initial phone interview was conducted by an employee who started as an intern the previous year. The interview was friendly and the questions gave a good impression of what would be expected of a Systems Engineer.
This was followed the next week with an in person interview conducted by senior members of the department. The interview began 1:1 with a manager and part way through became a group interview by three people. All three were polite and easy to talk to. There were general and specific questions about my previous experience as well as a significant discussion of the job I was applying for.
Two weeks later, a final interview was conducted by two managers in the department. This interview was tougher with more discussion of my skills, work history, motivation, and career plans.
Following the final interview I was contacted by human resources to authorize a background check and provide references. Approximately two weeks later, the company made an offer of employment.

Interviewed Jan 2009 (took 3 weeks)
Saw a development postion posted on the Internet. Conacted the recruiter and my resume was shared with hiring manager. Had an initial phone screen with recruiter, then hiring manger. Both seem to go well. Lots of rapid fire questions. Was then brought in for an on site interview. Didn't really see much of the office. I thnk they were interested in multiple canidates.

Interviewed Dec 2010 (took 5 weeks)
Everyone was professional and the HR rep was exceptional. Although I wasn't offered the position it was a good experience. The process consisted of two rounds of phone interviews: a) HR screening and b) hiring mgr. screening; followed by a four-hour session consisting of four interviews with peers, hiring manager, and assorted techy and business execs.
Questions were not technical and focused more on the personality and culture fit. There were some questions pertaining specifically to project management that were the "What would you do if..." or "How would you get X done in a matrixed organization.
I felt it was a good fit and the interviews went well so I'm not sure where the disconnect occurred.
Good company.

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took a day)
Six separate 1:1 interviews were schedule on one day. Each interviewer represented different areas of the business that were associated with, supported by or in support of the position. One interviewer completely missed their time slot with no explanation. All other interviewers were professional and open with their information. The interview questions were typical. Left the interview feeling positive. Was told by the hiring manager that all the interviews went well. Subsequently, the company went completely dark. None of the follow up commitments were kept. I never heard from the company again - either positive or negative. Very disappointed in the outcome. I was more disappointed in the treatment than not receiving a job offer. Ultimately, I guess this was behavior was good to learn. If they treat candidates this way, imagine how they treat their employees.
