Interviewed Nov 2010 in Irvine, CA (took a day)
Very comfortable interview process. Interview with one director, two senior managers, and the VP.
Mostly behavioral questions; senior managers may ask more technical or analytical questions.
After the interview, they treat you to a lunch with current associates.
Overall, an enjoyable process. Too bad I didn't get the position.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Irvine, CA (took a day)
Hitachi brought in about 25 students from various schools to interview for the tactical and business positions. Interviews were simple-- mainly just talking about yourself and your interests to 4 VPs. They were draining because they were back to back interviews and then a lunch with current employees afterward.

I got the interview through an Employee Referral.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Irvine, CA (took 4+ weeks)
The first interview was on campus and it was mostly a background check of the internships and experience I had. It was very casual, like any other first interview.
The second (and final) interview took place in their downtown Los Angeles office. About 10 people were brought in for a 4 round interview. Interviewed with managers and VPs. Before the interviews started the current consultants had a Q/A session where they presented about the company and opened it up to questions at the end. Also a very laid back experience, great way to get to know the company culture and talk with people. Overall a great interview process.

Interviewed Jul 2009 in Los Angeles, CA (took a day)
Was referred in by an industry contact.
Unfortunately, Hitachi has made a few waves of layoffs recently.
They are looking to staff consultants with extremely technical skills.
This does not mean they are on a pure hiring freeze, but look elsewhere if you are more aligned towards functional or process related projects.

Interviewed May 2007 in Costa Mesa, CA (took 5 days)
I met with 3 Sr Managers and 2 Partners in a total of 4 meetings within one morning. There was no difficult questions, but we were both looking for a good fit. I may have been too specialized within the IT security field, and they were looking for an IT generalist to cross selling their services.
