Interviewed Jun 2009 (took 2 weeks)
I was contacted by an HR personal to fix up an Interview date on applying through Corporate site. I received call for the interview on the Time scheduled by HR. Instead of having behavioral interview I was interviewed by three Team Leads of three different projects. The interview was Fully technical but not very Tough. Question asked were mainly about the Instrumentation experience required by the position such as PCR experience. When & how long you had been using PCR? What are the different types of PCR and name them?

Interviewed Mar 2009 (took 5 days)
Employer received resume. Called to discuss experience with particular area / subject the internship would be based. Called back a week or two later to offer the position. Would be beneficial for applicant to be specific in resume or cover letter any areas of expertise, instrument usage, or research experience, ie spectroscopy. The people and environment at Dow are awesome. I will be applying for full time.

Interviewed Mar 2009 in West Lafayette, IN (took a day)
I thought the interview was a simple process. I applied on line. Had a brief phone interview and then met in person. This company wasnt interested in hiring me due a past experience. So unless you have a 4.0 gpa with tons of work experience, I wouldnt waste my time.
