Interviewed Jun 2009 in Orlando, FL (took 2 days)
Uses behavioral interview questions. Questions ask you to describe a situation where a certain event occurred and how you handled it. Candidates only meet with 2 or 3 people and that is in a single group interview. This is nice because you don't have to repeat yourself or hear the same information repeated from your interviewers.

My interview was in October of 2004 (system woudn't let me select older date). I was interviewed by HR, hiring manager, one other engineer, and the Sr. hiring manager, four people in all. All interviews were 1:1 and consecutive. Some technical questions and mostly reivew of resume and general questions. Overall inteview went well and was pleased with General Dynamics selecting me for the position I was hired for.

Interviewed Jan 2009 in Scottsdale, AZ (took a day)
Recruiter came to my school, talked to me for 30 minutes. I showed interest in the job, they gave me an interview in Arizona. There were no technical questions asked, there were no personality questions asked. Just an overview of what they did and judged my interest.
When I flew out there, I had 3 1:1 interviews, a new recruit lunch, and a dinner in the evening. Accommodation were nice.
The new recruit lunch consisted of everyone going around telling their names, where they're from, their background and interests. The dinner was more of a social gathering, some of the managers came out to let you know if you were hired.
The 3 1:1 interviews were unrelated to each other and went as followed
1) Discussion over a good present for the interviewer's daughter for an hour
2) Technical questions (e.g. what is an abstract class). Why do I want to work there, etc.
3) Listened to the lady talk about what they did for an hour. ( i didn't even talk... )
Interviewers 1 and 3 wanted me, didn't matter if I did good or bad on interview 2.
I was sent a letter via fed-ex a week later with acceptance and a drug test.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Scottsdale, AZ (took 3 days)
Had a behavioral interview on-campus at ASU. Interview started out with filling out a skills worksheet rating abilities in technical areas such as various coding languages, circuit design, etc from 1 to 5. I mistakenly marked low values for most things, thinking I was being honest. I consider a 5 to be an experienced engineer. They said they were interviewing 15-20 people and would bring 10-12 in for technical interviews. They said I would hear back in 2 weeks. I never heard back and neither did 2 of my friends that also interviewed. If it helps any my GPA is 3.8.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Scottsdale, AZ (took a day)
Met a recruiter at a university job fair. Did an initial phone screen, then they called back a couple weeks later and I flew out to their site. You go in and they explain things, then you interview 1:1 with three people. They ask little to no technical questions, it was the easiest interview I ever did.
