Interviewed Oct 2011 in Lynchburg, VA (took a day)
I was interviewed by two employees who took turns asking questions, while writing down their answers. Most of the questions were behavioral questions where you had to give an example of what you did in a particular situation. They were fairly challenging. One of the interviewers was yawning during the session so I must have bored them.

Interviewed Feb 2011 (took 4+ weeks)
The hiring and interview process was very pleasant. I applied for the position online and later received an email with a set of questions and a time when they would call to discuss the position. From that about a week later I received a call to set up an interview with the hiring manager and a panel of others. Each person on the panel appeared to be looking for specific skills or qualities.
Negotiation Details
There was some room for negotiation. Always try to negotiate.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
I received an email to schedule for a phone interview. The interview only lasted 10 minutes. The recruiter immediately denied me after finding out that I don't have my series 6 and 63. I was confused and have expressed that to her because I never said I have the certifications and definitely did not put it on my resume. I also thought it was a preferred qualifications to have.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Richmond, VA (took a day)
I applied at a job fair at my school and got a call from them a few weeks afterward asking if I'd like to do a quick phone interview. I agreed and set it up. I'm a sophomore, for an idea of where I'm at.
The first phone interview was very easy. They were all behavioral questions with one very general technical one, likely just to do some basic screening.
After that, they called me telling me they'd like for me to come down to Richmond and do an on-site interview. The put me up in a pretty nice hotel right near their headquarters. The on-site interview was a series of three 1:1 interviews. They asked quite a few behavioral questions with a few somewhat general technical questions.

Reason for Declining
Location wasn't what I wanted - I wanted to travel a little further away. I also felt I could do a little better with the salary.

Interviewed Jun 2011 (took 2+ weeks)
Genworth continues to promote the old GE culture, which has advantages and disadvantages. They are an excellent company to work for, and I thoroughly enjoyed the interview process with several members of the leadership team. The interviews included initial phone interviews (one with a recruiter/one with a hiring manager) as well as face-to-face interviews with several members of the leadership team. Feedback was swift and excellent until they determine that you are not the right candidate.

Interviewed Nov 2009 (took 2 weeks)
Basic phone interviews with two HR managers. After a week lull another phone interview with a SVP. A site visit was made and then 3 more face to face interviews and then the customary and usual background interview and investigation. A job offer came rather fast and of course I negotiated a higher salary which they accepted.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Pleasant Hill, CA (took 2 months)
The Interview process started with an interview with an internal recruiter for the main business, in Richmond, VA. After a friendly discussion, I was referred to the west coast recruiter. That discussion resulted in 3 phone interviews over 4 weeks with in individual in a similar role to the one I was interviewing for, then the CIO who I would report to, and then the Director of HR. All these interviews went well, and ultimately, I was invited to fly to Pleasant Hill for face to face interview with 11 people, including the 3 that had interviewed me on the phone. All of this was very professional, in my opinion.
The only questionable experience was at the very end, when I asked a simple procedural question at the end, to the CIO, and was literally shoo'd away and told "I don't know, I don't deal with that stuff, ask someone else". What I had asked was how to get reimbursed for one particular expense, which is something I had not been informed of, prior.
That was the only time that I felt any concern for my fit in the organization.
