Interviewed Apr 2012 in Jamshedpur (India) (took 2 days)
The telephonic interview was conducted after an online Quiz and an Online submission of an essay. This was a new experience for me and I was interviewed on various topics starting from an introduction of myself to why I want to become the Student Ambassador of Elsevier and was also asked about how will this benefit me my peers and Elsevier. This was a wonderful experience and a few days later i received a mail that i have been selected as the Elsevier Student Ambassador for the Year 2012.

Interviewed Dec 2010 (took 2+ weeks)
My telephone interview with the hiring manager for an account executive position was a positive experience. The manager was extremely professional, had a great sense of humor and made me feel inclusive in the interview process. The questions asked were straight forward about my educational background and experience and my particular interest in working for the company.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Houston, TX (took 3 weeks)
My very initial interview was with the Program Manager. Next interview was with the PMO Director. Then followed by a Panel interview with 3 people. All interviews went well. My personal experience during the pannel interview is that the Software development director saw me as a threat to his position as i was more experienced than he was and in terms of what I was to bring to bring to the table.
