Interviewed Apr 2010 in San Diego, CA (took 2 weeks)
I submitted my application and resume online and I was contacted by someone in HR who set up a phone interview. My phone interview was with my future manager and lasted about 20 minutes. I was asked about my employment history, experience, position specific questions and then I was told that I would be contacted in the next few days if I was selected for an interview in person.
A few days later I was contacted via email by the HR representative and I set up an in person interview. It lasted about 2 1/2 hours. I was asked to take an exam to see how much I actually knew about what I was going to be doing and then I was interviewed by several attorneys, HR reps, managers, etc.
I was again told that I would be contacted in the next few days if I was selected for the position. My future manager contacted me and offered me the position and then I received my offer letter via email to look over. I accepted and began a few days later.

Interviewed Aug 2010 in Washington, DC (took 5 weeks)
Partners seemed really tired and overworked. So did the senior associates. One the senior associates confused me with someone else and was not prepared for my interview. They are very slow in getting back to you. Seems like they do mostly patent prosecution and will pigeon hole you into prosecution or litigation.
