Interviewed Oct 2010 (took 2+ weeks)
Phone interview with hiring manager as well as 3 peers to the role for which I was being interviewed. Each interview lasted about an hour. Process was straightforward. Offered job over the phone without meeting anyone face to face, which is strange for some but not unusual for a remote/virtual role. Also, I had the benefit of being heavily recommended within the group.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Palo Alto, CA (took 2 months)
- 2 phone screens
- 3 in person interviews
Reasonably structured process, interviewed with team; offer decision was made within a week and communicated. Interviews were typical with some behavioral and personal questions. Seemed to depend quite a bit on how much you got along with the interviewer. Offer letter received within another week with 2 weeks to make decision.
Interview Questions

Negotiated on pay (moderate increase on base pay; lot more flexibility on starting bonus)
Other Details

Interviewed May 2011 (took 2 weeks)
I had initial screening discussions with a search firm using phone and webex then progressed to a detailed discussion with the hiring manager via phone. The approach was professional and clear. Follow-up was lacking though. I decided the opportunity was not one to progress.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Bangalore (India) (took 4+ weeks)
My resume shortlised and they scheduled interview at 11:30amwhitefiled ofc .After more than an hr wait got someone spoke to me for around 30mins. It was good discussion asking about few tech and management related questions. Then again made me wait for an hr. Had someone very unprofessional at other end who hid behind some paper and writing after asking question. Bad english, horrible body language. Did not have any soft skills to interview and asked few derogatory question totaly unacceptable.
At one point i have to throw question back at interviwer as she was annoying me
