Interviewed Jan 2010 in Savannah, GA (took a day)
The DOMT will call you and go over your resume briefly. Then he will give you a topic for your presentation and email you some material to base it on. A couple days later they will bring you in for your interview and presentation. The interview is a panel of managers who will ask about details of you resume, situational questions, and technical questions.
The presentation is attended by every available instructor and manager. They watch for your presentation style with a subject that you may not be all too familiar with and classroom management. They will ask simple, technical and silly questions to throw you off and they may even goof off to see how you handle it. If you are not a good public speaker they will expose you.

Negotiation Details
It was over the phone, I took the first offer. I advise adding $12k to whatever they offer you because you will get it. They are desperate to hire anyone because they can't keep talented instructors.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview and a Presentation.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Saint Louis, MO (took 2 months)
Met at a careers fair and applied online. Called back about a month later and scheduled to spend a day at their offices. Met about 14 people in various 1-1 or panel situations. Was given a tour and had lunch. Had several interviews with managers and employee panels mostly asking about experience, things on my resume and some HR/behavioral questions. Everyone was very nice and polite. In a way I wish they weren't so nice as I left really wanting to work there and felt confident I was a good fit, yet I was turned down. I was not called back when they told me I would be and I contacted them several weeks later to ask. I heard back another week or so after that telling me the bad news. After I spent all that time and effort driving 2 hours to get there and back I was disappointed by my treatment afterwards. They should have told me sooner that I didn't get the position and I doubt they would have bothered to contact me at all had I not emailed. It turned out for the best as I am now scheduled for onsite interviews with Microsoft and Amazon and I heard the pay there at FS is not that great.
