Onsite interview was set up, a week after the telephone interview. It took 3 weeks for them to get back after mailing the HR and hiring manager. The work involved for the position was very good. The team was friendly and there was not much HR interaction. Coding Qs were only in C ranging from Pointers to Bit-wise operations to data structures..

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Sunnyvale, CA (took 2 days)
I approached a ex-colleague there and found out the open opportunity as I was fed up with me old employer. I was initially scheduled to talk with core team members and then Sr Director and VP of the group. All conversations were very professional and in a manner an experienced person would expect. There were not entry level questions. The recruiter was fantastic and constantly in touch with me. Overall very healthy interviewing process.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Sunnyvale, CA (took 1 week)
I was referred by my friend at Juniper in his group. His manager quickly conducted a phone interview and called me the next week for a face-to-face interview.
The phone interview consisted of lots of knowledge based questions like priority inversion, etc.
Face to face interview consisted of 5 interviews 45 minutes each. Each interviewer stressed on C programming skills, data structures, problem solving, algorithms and of course lots of questions about my projects on resume.

Interviewed Mar 2008 in Sunnyvale, CA (took a day)
I interviewed for a product line manager at Juniper. I had 5 interviews back to back.
The questions were quite technical and the tone was very friendly. All the interviewers made me feel very confortable. I enjoyed the causalness of the interview process.
I did bargain hard for the salary of $148K + sig-in bonus of $5K.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Sunnyvale, CA (took 4 weeks)
I had 2 telephonic screes. All the questions were on C,data structures and networking.
Finally they called up for on site interview. First day it was 4 rounds with each of them stressing on data structures/algorithms. Some details on projects and networking is also stressed upon.
After one week they called for next level of interviews which is again 4 more rounds. This time hiring manager,Group manager and Head of the BU involved interviewing.
In my opinion its really a tedious and long process. I dont see any reason for 2 phone + 8 rounds of 1:1 interviews. Finally they told they would make an offer.
