Interviewed Oct 2009 (took a day)
All he did was call me and ask to come in, I came in expecting an interview, but instead he just asked me a few questions about my availability and gave me my tax forms to fill out. I think they were really desperate for people.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Drug Test.

Interviewed Aug 2009 (took 2 weeks)
The interviewer went through a list of questions, which is similar to the questionaire I answered when applied online. She didn't seem interested in listening but taking note. The interview seemed impersonal to me

Interviewed Mar 2008 (took 1 week)
I was contacted by the division manager for a phone interview. It went on for 30 minutes. Then I was conveyed through mail about my 1:1 interview which was conducted after 5 days. It was a panel of 5 mainly managers. It seemed they had distributed topics among them. One was consistent on my previous skills. Other was more tilting towards my peoples skills. One of them gave me a situation based problem where I had to give an answer which would satisfy them (which is usually not the case!). Overall interview environment was light. Being of the same field I was able to answer most of their business related questions but was not able to satisfy on analytical skills.

Interviewed May 2008 (took 2 weeks)
The interview was somewhat informal. I had to interview with two seperate members of management and was offered, and pushed, to be a bellman before I was even considered for the job I was applying for. There was a lack of communicaton with management.

Interviewed Jul 2009 (took 1 week)
It was super easy, just walked in, luckily the manager was there. Since it was summer, she needed help. If she's not there, you can easily just get an application and drop it off at the front desk. I received a call a few days later and was asked brief questions, then hired.

Interviewed May 2008 in Dundee, MI (took a day)
Was interviewed in a matter of 30 minutes, immediately afterwards I was offered the job. The company experiences very high turnover (likely because of their poor treatment of employees) and therefore hires frequently.
Actually witnessed a fight between a supervisor and manager during my interview; should have known then.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Atlanta, GA (took a day)
Interview went well. Hiring manager was very interactive and open about the situation for which they were hiring. Manager was looking for an applicant with a particular history for the position and has yet to have found it. They've since hired from within the organization and changed the requirements of the opportunity.
