Interviewed Jun 2010 (took a day)
1 on 1 initial interview. Besides the standard strength/weak kind of questions, they are very curious to know in your long term career plans/goals with the company. Where do you see yourself and how you think being with HP can take you there.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Conway, AR (took 2 weeks)
I first started with a phone interview which lead to an offer to go to the HP site and interview next. The interview process at the site took 4 hours and had about 80 people interviewing there. First they gave us a little background on HP and the site, as well as the job. Afterwards, we took a multiple choice skills test as well as a group "test" where we had to build a structure as tall as possible with only marshmallows and kabob sticks (used to test how well we work with others and how quickly we could catch onto the task). After that we were split up and had two one-on-one interviews with supervisors from the site. About a business week later I received a call with an offer. I accepted.
