Interviewed Mar 2011 in Canton, MA (took 4+ weeks)
The first interview was through an HR representative and it was about an hour and a half long discussing my resume and the position I was applying for. It was a very straight forward/gatekeeper kind of interview. There was a brief writing sample at this stage as well
The second interview was less formal and the interviewer described it as a bit of a personality test to see how I would fit in with the group and if I had the necessary social skills to interact with clients on a professional level.
A sales presentation was required after all the interviews were finished.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in Atlanta, GA (took 4 weeks)
MEDITECH - ATLANTA
Formerly PtCT
I did not work for this company, but did interview with them. I submitted my resume for a developer position and got a call back in less than a week. I was told that there was an implementation position that might be a better fit, given my background and experience displayed on my resume. I was interested in this and was called in for the initial interview. I met with the recruiter and had to fill out some paper work, hand over my transcripts, and write a creative essay. Then I was called back to perform an instructional presentation, which I thought went very well. Then I was called back a third time to meet with someone from the Support department. The director asked if I wanted a job in Support, which confused me because I thought that I was interviewing for the implementation role the entire time. He seemed ready to extend a job offer. I told him that I would still like to pursue the other position. Communication through email was very easy and prompt up to this point, but when I got back home and emailed a couple of contacts a few days later, I got nothing back.
The next day, I get a rejection letter in the mail. My understanding is that they wanted to hire someone who will take a salary in the lower range (32k), which wouldn't even cover my bills. I could have gotten by with the upper range of their salary offering (42K). Up to the final meeting, I was assured that everything was moving along and the outlook on my employment was still pretty good.
It might be a blessing in disguise, I'm interviewing with another company that has a higher pay scale and uses non-proprietary languages for their code. All it cost me was a tank of gas and about 10 hours of my time.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Framingham, MA (took a day)
The interview experience was brief since it was only one meeting. After the initial phone call, the appointment was set up. On the day of the interview, I was on time as appropriate. However, the recruiting specialist did not meet me in the waiting area to begin the interview until 15 minutes after the scheduled time. I found this to be very unprofessional. I felt the questions asked were straight forward and expected. Afterwards, a creativity test was given. I felt I did at least a satisfactory job on the interview and was told to wait for a follow-up to schedule a second interview. About 2 weeks later, I call the recruiting specialist to follow up and was told that some members of the department are slower than others in reviewing my application. Unfortunately I receive a rejection letter a day later in the mail.

Interviewed Oct 2009 (took 2 days)
Received a call from an HR lady to set up an initial interview at the Framingham office. The first interview consisted of full analysis of my resume. I then took a 3 hour exam which tested my knowledge of the code and logical thinking skills. The second interview was with Senior Supervisor and Supervisor of the group to see if I was a good fit. The office environment is very laid back.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Framingham, MA (took 3 weeks)
I applied online in mid summer and about 3 or 4 months later got a call about the job. I was still looking so I was told to take a look at the website and give the woman a call back. The next day I called 6 times and left 3 messages with no call back. The following day I called another 4 times and finally got to speak to the HR person. Setup a phone interview for the following week. The call for the phone interview was about 15 minutes late but went well, really easy questions and only lasted about 20 minutes. Next came a 1:1 interview. the night before the original date she called to reschedule for the following week. On the interview day I ended up waiting again for about 20 minutes past the planned time. Again the interview was easy, the person asked many questions about college, my major, and group projects even though I have been out of school for over 2 years.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Framingham, MA (took 2 months)
First, my resume was forwarded to the recruiting department through a current employee of the company. According to the recruiting department, the meditech recruiting department gets 60% of its new hires through current employee referrals. A couple weeks later I was called by a recruiter to go over the details of the position. Everything was laid out on the table, travel requirements, job location, benefits and a salary range. At the end of the conversation an initial face to face interview was scheduled with the same person for a few weeks later. The face to face interview consisted of many open ended questions "what are you most proud of" or "Tell me about a time you failed at something" or "How would you handle a co-worker that was not pulling their weight and it was affecting the team" etc. The recruiter showed up 30 minutes late to the interview, but was courteous and seemed genuine...not fake or corporate. She gave a genral idea of what working at meditech would be like. At the end of the interview, she gave no indication of whether I would recieve a call back but told me that if I did the next step would be a panel interview and a 15 minute presentation on any medically related topic. Two weeks later I was called and invited to come in for a panel interview/presentation. This interview was a bit more intense. The interview started with the presentation, there were 5 or 6 people present. I prepared a 10 slide powerpoint and a supplementary handout and I practiced the presentation a few times at home before the interview. After the presentation, the group asked questions about my topic which I did my best answering. They did not seem to expect me to be a subject matter expert, they were very informal and friendly. The interview portion seemed to take on a tone of the group telling me stories from their years working the job I was interviewing for and gaugeing my reaction to the job description. I had been pretty well prepared by the recruiting department for what the job would be like so the stories basically matched what I was already expecting. There were no open ended questions during this interview, none of that "what would you do if you found a wallet with a thousand dollars" type of thing. They wanted to talk about my relavent experience, give me as much warning as they could about how hard the job was going to be, and generally get to know me. The interview went well. They told me that they would talk about it and that if they decided to recommend me the next step would be a meeting with the VP of the department. About a week later I recieved a call from the recruiter informing me that I had been recommended and that the VP would be available for a meeting several weeks later. I confirmed the appointment and at that interview I met with the very friendly VP. She expressed some concern about my level of experience but she made me comfortable and I explained to her that if she gave me the opportunity I would not let her down. She told me she would talk to the team and find a slot for me and that the recruiter would call me soon. A few days later I recieved the official offer via phone from the recruiter. Overall, each step of the interview process was a little bit nerve racking and there were long waiting periods where you would not hear back from them in between, but it was a good experience and I took the position and am happily working here now.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
There is no negotiating. The VP determines the offer and the recruiter delivers it. They tell you over the telephone before you even arrive for your first interview that the offer is what it is and they have a no negotiation policy. The offers are low, so prepare yourself for that, but the benefits + bonus + profit sharing seem to about balance out. Also, its a recession and they are actively hiring which is a huge plus for them.

Interviewed Jul 2007 in Framingham, MA (took 6 weeks)
Meditech has a very extensive interview process that you have to take seriously if you are going to get offered a position. The first interview is a general screening by an HR rep to find a position suitable for your interests and experience. If the HR rep finds a position you will move to a second interview with your potential supervisors and manager. At this interview I was required to do a 15 minute presentation on any health related topic since my position required presenting. I was also asked to give a quick writing sample of a couple paragraphs on why I wanted this job. If this interview went well you will be invited back for a third interview with the manager and director of the group that you are interviewing for. This is the final interview where salary is briefly discussed, although I don't think there is room to negotiate. After this interview they will let you know that they are going to make a decision and to expect a call within a week. That call came the very next day for me where they offered me the position.

Negotiation Details
I didn't really try, but if I were you I would let them know that you do not expect to get the minimum for the position and why you deserve to start somewhere in the middle, otherwise, they will give you the minimum.

The interview process is very extensive.
After the first interview you may be given a skills test. If you are chosen to return be prepared to go through another two interviews.
Lots of time goes by in between interviews so it could take months before you are hired.
