Very organized, swift interview process. Short and sweet. Direct call from company recruiter, screening call. Invitation to in person interview, provided the agenda. Met with 3 people, each 1 on 1. Behavioral and technical based questions. Response within 2 days.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
My experience and what I've heard from others at INC, the negotiation process (post-interview) @ INC is hit or miss. They are frugal for the most part and will largely lowball, but make it sound exceptional. Do your job market research, know your skill level and expertise, and know your worth first before accepting INC's offer. They want you to negotiate.

I completed a pre-screening survey for the recruiter first. During the phone interview, interviewer introduced the company and explained their upcoming development. Asked me general questions about my background: tell me about yourself; therapeutic experiences; if I have experience as a CRA lead.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Raleigh, NC (took 2 weeks)
I was contacted by phone by a recruiter and answered a few questions about my resume; mostly, I was asked to provide additional details regarding the specific therapeutic area in which I had applied. About 2 weeks later I traveled from Mid-Atlantic to TX for an interview with senior level team members for the therapeutic area. The f2f consisted of 3 individual interview with an executive, VP, and director followed by a brief presentation regarding application of project management skills during heavy work-load/assignments - essentially for the team to get a feel for your understanding of how the industry works for those on the ground level of clinical trials and how you convey information in public.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Raleigh, NC (took 2 weeks)
The people all seemed intelligent and professional, but the interview process was badly managed and unorganized. I was given a test, told I aced the test, told I was being recommended for the job, asked when I could start, and then......... nothing. Never heard anything more. It seemed very, very odd.
