Interviewed Mar 2012 (took 2 months)
Applied 2 months ago for position online, was contacted a couple weeks later for an phone interview. Then a week later a 3 manager interview. Went to interview and position was completely different from what the job posting listed. They wanted an Executive Assistant, so was very unprepared/unqualified for the opening. Was told would hear back either way after roughly a week. Followed up after a week with HR consultant, and said was still in running, would know in a week or so. Followed up again after almost 3 weeks and said still hadn't decided. Just heard back last week that they chose another candidate.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in New York, NY (took a day)
2 representatives came to campus and conduct two rounds of one-on-one interview. The first round is a typical behavioral interview, which last 30 minutes. The second round is more technique focused. The interviewers are really chill. The whole process is really relaxing.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 2+ weeks)
Very friendly and straight to the point. PreSet questions to ask by interviewer. Somewhat hard to get feedback based on facial expression of how the interview went. I would recommend having examples and knowing the job description inside out
