Interviewed Jan 2012 in Houston, TX (took 2 months)
To be a large corporation, I found the process to be be very unorganized. I later found out that this was due to a lack of support staff. The hiring manager had to arrange most details himself. Layoff, off-shoring, and contractors had led to a severe reduction in work staff.

Interviewed Nov 2009 (took 1 week)
I was contacted by a recruiter who asked if I was interested in a position. We were quick to establish a meeting time. The recruiter came to my campus and held the interview there. I was asked a couple of the standard behavioral questions. Then, we preceded to doing two technical questions. One software, and one hardware. The recruiter was very personable and was helpful during the interview process
