Interviewed Aug 2010 in Atlanta, GA (took a day)
It was for a research assistant position at school. I sent my resume to the professors at Institute of Public Health, and we talked about the experience I have, also the roles I can do to assist the professor. I believe it was a great talk.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Atlanta, GA (took 4+ weeks)
The first round interview was conducted over the phone by 4 interviewers. It was pretty standard. quetions included tell me about yourself, previous experience with projects. Two days after the first interview, I was offered an on-site interview as the second. I stayed in the Center for a little more than half a day, interviewed with 3 panels each for half an hour, did a presentation for about 20 minutes including Q&A, did a writing test for 45 minutes, finally a one-on-one interview. People there were really nice.

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Atlanta, GA (took 4 weeks)
The interview consisted of a first-round phone interview with the committee. A few weeks later I was contacted about interviewing in person. The in-person interview included a panel interview, as well as a presentation. The interview questions were easy, nothing out of the ordinary.

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 3 days)
Received a call from support staff about the interview and the directions were emailed to me. However there were no directions just a map of the campus. The support staff person did not speak or understand English well so she was no help to me.
The panel inteview consisted of seven people from various department at the university. The questions were mostly behavioral interviews. In addition to the interview a presentation was required on any topic of my choosing.
I was told by the hiring manager I would hear something about the teams decison regardless of the outcome but I never did. I found out the positon was filled by looking at updates on Linkedin.

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took 2 weeks)
The initial contact was with an admin assitant and she scheduled the interview and provided directions to the interview via email. However, when I tried to look the up the directions via Yahoo driving directions and Mapquest the building did not exsist. I called to get more details from her but she was unable to help me. I left for the interview 2 hours in advance to ensure I was there on time. Once I was in the downtown area I called her again to ask her if she could give me landmarks to direct me to the building, she was not able to do so. There were a few students walking by and I asked them for directions and I was able to find it. The problem outside of the admin unable to help me was that they do not have the numbers on the building. When I asked about this to management, they told me it was to protect employees from angry candidates and unsolicated inquires.
The interview was pretty standard for a panel interveiw. The questions were not hard and the presentation I had to deliver was not stressful. Everyone was respectful and professional. My disappointment with the process is they did not contact me to inform me they had gone with another candidate. I was told I would hear back from the panel regardless of the outcome.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took 3+ weeks)
My interview process is not over and its still on-going. I was scheduled for an interview. I arrived at the interview 30 minutes early in a suit and tie (white shirt, dark suit, dark blue tie). I had to wait a while before the interview started since I got there so early. There were magazines in the waiting room, so I skimmed through one of the magazines.
In the interview, the HR person asked me six questions:
1) Tell me one time when you had to tell someone 'No'.
2) Describe the importance of listening (or maybe communication).
3) What do you consider to be good customer service?
4) What qualifies you to be a goo fit for this job?
5) Give me an example of when you did something that wasn't a part of your job description.
6) Why do you want to work for Georgia State University?
