Interviewed Jun 2008 (took 6 weeks)
I was introduced to the supervisor of the company division with a position to fill by a colleague working as a consultant, this served as an intial short interview to determine mutual interest. From that I was asked for a skype interview with the supervisor and HR person. After that I was invited to interview in person in Norway. They paid all expenses, the interview with the same two lasted less than 2 hours which included a powerpoint presentation of the company interests and structure. Questions to me were relevant and nothing unexpected, challenging only that some question ask you to reveal less positive ascpects of your character, I generaly am fine with these and find people value authenticity. Ultimately I was offered the position but the salary was not sufficient to make up for the lifestyle downers of living in a small, dark, cold town.

Reason for Declining
Ultimately I was offered the position but the salary was not sufficient to make up for the lifestyle downers of living in a small, dark, cold town. In addition, it was somewhat of a career risk as the job description was about 50% ideal, and there was no guaruntee that this % would expand (or even be maintained). HR could have been more helpful in determining the substanial cost of living adjustments.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Group/Panel Interview.
