Interviewed Feb 2012 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
ask me lots of technical questions about statistics, including model choice, missing value, etc. I think I answered most of them, but they still reject me without notification. Three interviewer together. I thought I know the answer, but maybe I didn't explain clearly enough. so I failed. so Disappointed.

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 2 days)
Two day interview process at the corporate HQ. They paid for travel expenses. Consisted of a company tour and then interviews with several possible team leaders. The leadership not only is the manager but also knows the work the employees do which was a huge plus. Same group of people asked general behavioral questions as well as technical questions.
Knew within a month if I was accepted. Far as I was informed, they only hired from the internship pool, which I was a part of at that time, and do very, very few external hires.
Best interview process I ever had in the Chicagoland area.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took a day)
The interview lasted about 20 minutes and they asked basic behavioral questions. Nothing special to note about the process except the interviewer basically said not to apply again which I thought was a little rude but what can you do I guess.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Riverwoods, IL (took 6 weeks)
I was contacted by the recruiter, we talked on the phone for 30 mins, and then I came in on a 4 hour face-to-face interview with the HR team in January
After the interview, the recruiter set the expectation that I would be contacted after 1st round interviews were completed. I followed up a number of times (via voice mail) and finally received an email from the recruiter 4 weeks after my face-to-face...but it was a blow off email that said something about still interviewing candidates. 2 weeks after that, the job was posted as HR Business Leader out on LinkedIn. I left voice mails messages for the recruiter after I saw the posting...and simply asked for closure. NOBODY called me back. I then got a call a week later from a recruiting firm that had my info from years ago....and they were now retained for the role and wanted to talk with me. I told them no thanks. After sending an email to their CHRO, I got a call from the Dir of recruiting who spent 30 mins apologizing for how I was treated. If they treat their HR candidates like crap.....how do they treat other candidates? Just saying.....

Interviewed May 2011 in Riverwoods, IL (took a day)
I got the interview call thru a Recruiter asking to come for a face to face. The Recruiter said, it was an immediate need. The interview was very casual, they wanted a replacement for a person who was moving out to another unit. Although the interviewer seemed to be satisfied and also introduced me to the Director and the team (which I was told was a good sign), I was little surprised that I didn't hear any feedback from them.
