Interviewed Mar 2011 in Melbourne, FL (took a day)
I received an e-mail from a recruiter offering a phone interview for an internship with Harris. Having never heard of Harris prior to this e-mail, I took the interview and spoke with the recruiter, who gave me a lot of information about what Harris does before actually asking me interview questions.
He asked me fairly simple questions. He asked me about the group projects listed on my resume (how to handle conflict, working in a team, etc.) as well as a few technical questions.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Melbourne, FL (took a day)
Interview was very straight forward. I got interviewed for the healthcare division (a growing one over there). Consisted with basically the same interview questions from a sheet. You get two of the programmers, one 2nd to the head, then the director.
I believe I messed up the last one with the director, because he asked something different the other three didn't.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Melbourne, FL (took a day)
Harris came to my schools career fair and after talking to the representative I was invited to do an interview the next day. The interview was 1:1, relaxed, and non-technical, most of the questions were based off my resume.
I received a phone call telling me I was being invited to Melbourne, FL for follow up interviews. They flew me down and gave me a rental car and a suite on the beach for a few days. The interview its self was a series of 1:1 interviews with several people. The format of the interviews were all the same with no real technical questions just questions based off my resume and experience @ my internship.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Melbourne, FL (took 2 weeks)
Applied for position through my school job site. After reviewing my resume they offered me an initial interview at my school career center. The interview was a 1:1 with someone within Division Operations. It was very casual, relaxed, interviewer was easy to talk to. They also had me talk with a current financial analyst that was just hired as well. Mostly basic interview material, behavioral, resume review, etc. Process is still on going.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took 2 days)
I was on my college job fair and I showed my resume to the recruiter from Harris; we talked about the different openings available and what I could do on Harris as an electrical engineer. He liked the stuff on my resume and gave me an interview for the next day. On the next day he asked me about the different projects I had on my resume; the interview lasted about 45mins. He told me that within two months I would probably receive another interview via phone and if I pass that one, I would get invited to another interview (technical type) on the company. So, the hiring process "in my case" consists of three interviews: 1 on 1, phone, and technical on site.
The first interview was about a week ago, so im still waiting...

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Melbourne, FL (took a day)
I was trying to score an internship for the summer between my junior and senior year of college. I briefly talked with a campus recruiter and gave him my resume. About a week later I was informed that they were interested in doing a preliminary phone interview. We set up a date and time, and a few days later I got a call from a hiring manager.
We walked through my resume and he asked me what languages I was strongest in, and which classes I had the most trouble with. It was a very simple, non-technical interview. I was confident that it went well, and I received a call about a week later with an offer for the summer which I ended up accepting.

The interview questions are very simple, just some basic OOP and C++ concepts. Also asked for socket programming, GUI experience. Not hard, but they don't like to reply for the follow-up after interview.
