Interviewed Apr 2012 in Des Moines, IA (took 3 weeks)
I applied online and about a week later I recieved a call asking if I would be interested in coming in for an interview with two HR representatives. I had my first interview with the two hr reps and the next week I was called back to come in an meet with the HR director. I had a short interview with the HR Director and she said the next step in the process would be going to NY and meeting with several individuals. She said they often takes weeks if not months making hiring decisions and she would be traveling the next week so not to expect to hear back right away but either way I would get some sort of correspondence from them.
It has been over a month since my last interview. I even tried to contact one of the HR reps to see if I was still being considered for the position and never received a response back.
Based on not getting any info on my status I am assuming they are seeking other candidates. I think it is VERY unprofessional that the could not even respond to my email asking for an update on my status.

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 4 months)
First you apply online. Then anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, if someone in HR is interested in you, there will be a phone call to set up a time to have a phone interview from HR. If that ends in a positive light in their eyes, you will be contacted anywhere from a few hours to a week from that time via email of a 1:1 interview with a member of management. Upon completing that interview, there will be an online personality/iq type test you will need to take and pass. If you fail, you will receive an email stating something like thank you for your time but at this time we feel you are not a good fit for this position. If you pass it you may not know it until another phone call from HR (anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks) where they will outline the salary and job description again. If you accept the position via the phone call, you will have about 8 hours to go to the designated doctor's office to produce a urine sample (drug test). During the interim between the phone interview and/or 1:1 interview the company does an extensive background test
My best advice be honest. Be truthful. Don't shame yourself by exagerating your schooling, experience or merits. Don't go into the interview process with the attitude you are just going to answer their questions with nonchalant answers to butter the manager up or that you think they want to hear. Give honest and precise answers. If you have never had any experience doing this before, let them know that, but show them with an intelligent answer why you would be a great team member. Don't go into the interview all shaky because of nerves or too much caffeine. If you are nervous, tell the manager up front you are. Don't let them assume you are on drugs or something.
Most of the time, you will find all that you come in contact with during the interview process, kind, helpful and thorough. Expect it to be filled with chatter from each area of the offices you visit. This is a communication company. Expect people to be sitting in cubicles, using office machines, talking non-stop to an invisible to you customer, people milling about all the time traveling from one area in the office to another, managers roaming around non-stop. The office is a busy, talkative, chaotic (at times), cluttered (at times) people filled place. Don't go expecting a quiet sterile environment.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in New York, NY (took a day)
I was given the interview by an HR recruiter who felt my resume fit perfectly with the job description. Once my interview date was set, I met with 3 different search management teams all in charge of various accounts. Each interview person asked different questions, but the common on was "What are your weaknesses?" The office seemed very comfortable and the people were very friendly.

Interviewed Aug 2009 in West Des Moines, IA (took 2+ weeks)
Applied On-line. Couple of days later, contacted by recruiter for more information-- then completed additional on line application about the role-- very straightforward. Then contacted about phone interview with the recruiter (some time to hear back from the recruiter, which was frustrating). Interviewer was personable and asked good job related questions. Then forwarded on to hiring leader for a second IV, whom also asked job related questions.
I was impressed with the interviewer's and hiring leader's professionalism.
