Interviewed Feb 2010 (took a day)
If part of the top graduating students from the big schools, HP will get your contact information from the school and invite you in a fast-track interview process. This will get you ahead of the pack by being interviewed before anyone else. Since it's fast track, there's only 1 interview. 2 managers will interview you. Usually, one will be your direct manager and the other one will be the manager 2 levels up. Most questions were of behavioral type. Duration of the interview varies, depending on who conducted the interview--can range from 30mins to almost 2hours. Work culture in HP is really nice.

Negotiation Details
For entry-level positions, there's really not much to negotiate. They kind of have a determined value based on your honors.
Other Details
I got the interview through a College or University and the interview consisted of a Group/Panel Interview and a Drug Test.

Interviewed Nov 2009 (took 2 days)
It started with filling out an online form. Next was the phone call for setting up the interview. This was the first steps in the process by the company person doing the interview. Next was the actual phone interview. The actual interview took about 40 minutes and seemed to go well. Last was a rejection notification.

Interviewed Jan 2008 in Herndon, VA (took 2 weeks)
I interviewed with multiple levels of management and technical people on the account. They pressed me for my experience working with the government and tested my skills with the equipment available on the account. I went through three series of interviews over a two week period, took a drug and personality test, followed by a full background check.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Naperville, IL (took a day)
I did a quick phone inteview for the HR recruiter. Then a group interview at a Starbucks in Naperville. They asked a few standard interview questions and explained the position. They interview stopped going well when they asked what type of Networking experience I had. Of course I haven't had much.

Received and Declined Offer

Interviewed Nov 2009 (took a day)
To make the meeting informal from the start, step out from behind your desk. The seating arrangement should make you and the candidate equals. Then offer something to drink. Ask candidatures if they want some coffee or water, and then pour it yourself. This gesture will make it clear you aren't an ogre. Lead in with a little idle conversation and tell candidates about your company. It's also a good idea to add a little of your background into the company description - where you came from, why the company attracted you...
Reason for Declining
The salary was lower.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Staffing Agency and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview.
