The interview process was very nice. They were so kind. I talked with them in a Company Night at my university. In the face to face the guy asked me to talk a little bit about my resume, since he liked it he offer me a formal interview. The next day I had the interview, it was a behavior interview.

Then like two weeks later they sent me the oficial offer. I accepted it and called them to negotiate the start date and they were able to change it for me.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Kingsport, TN (took 2 weeks)
Eastman Chemical Company has a one-on-one interview style that focuses on getting to know the person individually through both questions pertaining to "situations when you experienced ..." and "tell me about ____ on your resume". The interviewer was both relaxed and informative about all questions I had relating to the company and had appropriate links for me to visit if I was more curious about the specifics of the job that could not be answered by the interviewer. Overall, it was one of the best interviews I had during my co-op search.

Very pleasant yet demanding. The interview was one-on-one with several different people throughout the day. Would have enjoyed the opportunity to work there if offered the job.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Kingsport, TN (took a day)
Received a call from the HR dept. to setup phone interview. Phone interview lasted 1 hour and consisted of mostly behavioral questions. In-person interview consisted of 1:1 interviews with 5 separate engineers, 1 hour per interviewer. Almost purely behavioral questions such as: "name an instance when your technical knowledge was used to solve a problem", and "why do you want to work for us". Interviewers were respectful and polite, not as bad as some other companies I've read about on here. Just be ready for these types of questions.

Interviewed Aug 2009 (took 3 weeks)
First interview was with the HR director. Essentially, it is more about him knowing you and you to roughly know what the job is about.
Very friendly and open. No technical questions nor questions about how much you know about the company.
Second interview was with your superior and another colleague.
Here, they tried to find out more about your experiences, reasons for wanting the job and how you could fit in.
Your colleague also tried to find out whether he/she can work well with you.....
