Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 5 days)

This was an internal interview for an internal transfer. I spoke with the hiring manager about interviewing, and was encouraged to do so. The hiring manager set up a series of interviews with their colleagues and management. A panel interview was set up with the people that this position would manage. In the end the person who won the position had a lot of support from his former manager, a colleague of the hiring manager.

Long interview process. Starts with phone interview from a recruiter, then a series of panel interviews with key department personnel. Be patient, as the process can take a very long time.
