Interviewed May 2012 (took 2 days)
There were 2 interviews on the same day: one with the direct manager, another with the HR manager. The interview with the direct manager consists of going over the skills test I had done earlier. HR is quite insistent on having you disclose your salary from previous jobs. So be ready with a good reply.

Interviewed Apr 2012 (took 1 week)
First find out about the company on a Job Fair held at my school campus. Initial communication with the company is by talking with a recruiter at their booth in the Job Fair. Got a call the next day and was asked to go in for an interview. Interviewed with an experienced Engineer whom's worked there for 10 years. Asked me what did we talked about at the job fair, basically stuff on my resume. he asked me specifics about my senior project. then he asked me about my familiarity with their product, can't slide by with just knowing one of their products, you have to know a couple, he'll ask you 'so what else.' Then he asked me what area of work do i prefer, software or hardware.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Anaheim, CA (took 4 weeks)
Got a phone call asking for an interview appointment. Didn't even mention the position I was being considered for. I had to ask. Did three interviews, two with actual managers and one with HR. All three on different days.
No email contact ever, strictly phone. I am supposed to remember names of people I talk to.
List of HR questions was epic. Do you prefer quality or quantity?
Said 55-65 and offered 70, same as other entry level positions despite the 5 year experience. I hate it when HR looks at one particular position and completely ignores what the individual is capable of.
HR cannot read people. They offered me a job when I was clearly faking my way in. Or maybe I'm really good at it.
I've been there three times now, the first two were short 15 mins interviews. No technical questions at all. In fact they offered me the position without a single technical question ever being asked.
They claim to be a conservative company, I found them to be more conservative than my previous Japanese employer. So much for being in California. Clean shave everyday, short hair, business dressing, no jeans or 'tennis' shoes, no smoking on campus, not even in parking lot. Seriously?
Out of all the positions I had applied for they selected me for a position that required a special language skill. Technical ability or experience was completely ignored.
They made an offer but were surprised when I said I want time to think. They actually assumed that I'd sign it right away. Also expected me to take a medical test right there and then.
I wrote this while sitting alone in the interview room waiting for my offer letter was being made. On demand.

Reason for Declining
Should be obvious by now. They're crazy, don't pay too much, completely disregard my technical skills or liking.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview and a Personality Test.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Raleigh, NC (took 2 days)
When I showed up at the interview I met with the HR lady. She led me to a videoconference room and gave me an application to fill out. I thought it was odd that she did not come back to introduce me to the people doing the interview. She dialed in the number and left. I spoke with 3 people who were in Anaheim, CA. The questions were technical, but not difficult. The application asked for my W-2 from my current employer and previous. I asked why and they said to verify that I did in fact work where I said, but it appeared from the application that they were verifying my salary. I asked about the time clock and the employees flexibility with their schedule. There is a time clock and everyone punches in and out, and there does not seem to be any flexibility in an employees schedule. I did not finish the application or the skills test and told the HR lady I was not interested. I later received an email stating that they were not going to continue the interview process with me; they were going to continue to look for the right candidate for the position.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Alhambra, CA (took a day)
I drove such a long way to get there then it was just a 5 minutes long behavioral interview. The front desk lady is friendly but I don't think the HR lady interviewed me actually listen to me or care about what i said. She just brought a form and went through all the questions on it with me so quickly. not feel like communication..I was confused.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Anaheim, CA (took a day)
Interview process begins with filling out an application on site. I was then sent to a different building where I was interviewed by 4 managers/leads for about 30 min with each. Questions ranged from general description of experience to answering specific technical ones. None too challenging. Work area seemed rather quiet for the amount of people there. Not sure what to make of that.

Interview was totally different and surprising. Interview questions were not related to the job requirement. All questions was highly technical like as like as MSEE level math test.
