Interviewed Dec 2009 in Indianapolis, IN (took a day)
Initial contact was made to me from the corporate office. Very nice communication by email and telephone. The interview was started by the department head and I met with a few more people afterwords. Once with two interviewers. With the first interviewer, I was straightforward with two points on the job description that I was lacking. He let me know that it was no big deal. The last interviewer let me know that those two points were a negative. I wasn't sure who would be making the final decision. A few days after the interview, I called to check the status of the decision making process. I could never reach the department head. Later I called the Senior Mechanical Engineer and he acted surprised that no one had contacted me. He would not tell me if I was still a candidate, but I knew by his response that I was not. The next day, the corporate office contacted me to tell me someone else had been chosen.

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Indianapolis, IN (took a day)
The interview process consisted of a single in-person interview with the engineering manager, followed by a plant tour, and a recap of the company needs in the manager's office. Although the engineering manager wanted me to also meet with his boss, who was not available, the hiring decision seemed to rest soley with the engineering manager. The discussion with him, including his questions, showed that he was well prepared for the process. He reflected the level of his expertise and deferred to me on issues that were my expertise, willingly admitting that I had more knowledge then him in certain areas.
