Interviewed Dec 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took a day)
I applied online and heard back about 2 weeks later, an email scheduling a phone interview. I did my research and was ready - I was expecting a basic phone screen interview,but it was very comprehensive. I was asked some very in depth techincal and behavorial questions that I wasnt quite prepared for.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took 2 weeks)
Very professional emails and phone interview with a company recruiter. Things went well and she asked for some times I was available to come in for a 1/2-day interview with the hiring manager. She told me she would call back within the next week. Then, total silence. I followed up via email and still no reponse. By this time, I had spent hours researching the company and preparing for the promised interview. Very puzzling to be treated this way as a professional candidate.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took 4+ weeks)
Be careful with this company folks. They wasted a month of my time going through 10 interviews negotiated a salary with HR and still came up with a outrageous excuse not to hire me. Beware, they don't practice the MBM Guiding Principles like they would lead you to believe.

Interviewed Jul 2011 (took 2 weeks)
Phone Interview to screen candidates. Then an onsite day long behavioral interview with several one on one interviews with different managers and potential coworkers. It was a good way to get to know the company at the same time they got to know me.
They were very professional and easy to get along with although each location and plant will be different.
My suggestion is to have all the questions that you want to know about ahead of time.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Jericho, NY (took 2 weeks)
First I had a phone interview with a representative. Once I got the OK, we scheduled an interview. The interview itself wasn't with one person. I met with five different people within the company. Three of them were one-on-one and I met the other two together. Each mini-interview lasted about 30-40 minutes. Each person had a different agenda and went about the interview a different way. Some just asked questions from a piece of paper while others actually engaged in conversations with me.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took 2+ weeks)
Phone interview for 30 minutes with job description and technical interview.
Followed up with in-person interview the following week with a panel of 5. This time was more personal interview but still have technical questions.
Work culture seems relaxed with alternate work schedule for full-time employees. People are nice and open. Office is a little old-school cubicles but provides enough privacy.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Green Bay, WI (took 3 weeks)
Initial interview was over the phone. Asked typical phone questions, nothing overly challenging. A week later had an in person interview with four employees. Total in person interview took a few hours. They asked some typical questions like strengths and weaknesses but they were primarily concerned with if you would fit into their culture. If interviewing make sure to go to their web page and review the MBM philosophy.
