Interviewed Jun 2011 in Baltimore, MD (took a day)
The interview was from 11am-2:30 pm. I met with 1 manager and his director,individually. These were routine interview conversations. Then came the presentation. It was about 12:30 now and I was expecting us to break for lunch; no such luck. So we went to the presentation room. I was asked to prepare a 1-hour presentation, and I had come prepared. Turns out that the audience didn't have time and also, they were not able to reserve the projector. I had made copies of the slides, so the manager ran out and made copies of those for the 2 other people in the audience. I was asked to "make it short" and " present the important results". After the presentation, I was asked to wait in the conference room and told that the HR guy would meet me there. After waiting there about 5 minutes, some other people showed up there and I had to vacate the conference room, since they had reserved it. I waited in the hallway 25 minutes for the HR guy, before taking a nice lady's help to find the HR offices. The guy shows up there and says "I believe I JUST missed you". All in all a miserable interview experience. I was desperate for a job that time and so it hurt even more. Also I have to say, I was a little underqualified for the position, and that's why I didn't receive a job offer. But , all said and done, this is how you DON'T treat a person coming to your office for an interview.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Baltimore, MD (took 1 week)
The recruiter was fantastic - she really helped me understand the comany and the role. She asked some very specific technical questions - thats impressive for an HR person! The in person interviews were good - everyone was professional and ablet o answer all my questions. I was informed I should hear this week on next steps. Even if I don't get this role I will continue to apply as it seems like an awesome company to work for.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Baltimore, MD (took 1+ week)
I was headhunted by the in-house recruiter. She was very good at selling the company and the opportunity. She asked me some tough behavorial questions - she knew her stuff that's for sure! I must have answered them well - as I got a call back the next day to come in to interview in person with 5 other ppl. It was a good cross section of other HR colleagues as well as my business clients. Everyone was very nice and professional yet they were willing to educate me on the company and the vision for growth. I was so happy when the recruiter called to offer me the role (even though they negotiated hard!). I am glad I accepted the position in HR.

Negotiation Details
The recruiter informed me that they like to come to the table with the best offer possible - they don't 'low ball'. Due to my research the salary they offered was very fair. And I get an annual bonus now too!

Interviewed Jun 2011 (took 2 weeks)
Internal Interviews are a series of Behavioral Questions starting with a recruiter. Next round would be with a hiring manager, next round would be a panel, next round tends to be a Senior leader. Most of which does not mean much for internal candidates as friendships and internal networking usually fills the role before the process begins.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Baltimore, MD (took 2 days)
First, there was a fifteen minute phone interview. General questions were asked as well as a couple questions about my experience. Next, the in person interview lasted a total of an hour to hour and 15 min. The HR representative first talked with me about the company and benefits of the position. Then, I was taken to another room and was interviewed by two enrollment managers. The interview was difficult. The managers asked behavioral and situational questions that made me reflect on experience and education. Overall, they were nice but stern in their questions.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Baltimore, MD (took a day)
The HR initially contacted me about the applications manager in September 2011, did not hear back from her until November when I scheduled a face to face interview. I interviewed with 2 directors who asked me technical questions about databases, networks and operating systems. Interviewed with a VP who couldn't answer what his expectations of me were.
I answered all the technical questions as I was very familiar with them. So far, they have not provided any feedback even after emailing their HR.
After this process, I would not want to work for this company, seemed disorganized.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Baltimore, MD (took a day)
threw resume thru school's career center and got an interview. 2 interviewers were there to ask some general questions, no big deal. They were holding a question book and pick some from it to probe your behavioral traits. pretty nice people. They asked your difficult situation in your job and how to react to some cross-cultural situations. 1 hour or so long. No second round for me.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Baltimore, MD (took 2+ weeks)
- I was asked about the whole world even though i was going to be restrained in small lane
- In the interview they spoke all big things but later after joining it was totally different
- Had 4 rounds of interview with the people who didnt even know how to interview
Negotiation Details
Try to negotiate for more money since once you join there is no raise or proper bonus. Ask for 50 % more than market rate since you will be given the work of 3 employees
