Interviewed May 2010 in Indianapolis, IN (took 1 week)
Recruiter contacted me and was plesant. I was then contacted by a hiring manager and did a short phone interview. Next, I was brought in for a face to face interview and then wisked off to a panel of three hiring managers. I was then introduced to two senior level managers and did a meet and greet. Two days later an offer letter was issued and accepted.

Interviewed May 2009 in Glasgow, Scotland (United Kingdom) (took a day)
I received a telephone call to say they had seen my CV on the site, invited for an interview. Had an interview with three senior managers and offered the job later that day. Friendly people if a little intimidating to begin with.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in Washington, DC (took 5 days)
Did a phone screen with an internal recruiter and then with the hiring manager. Then the HR recruiter had me fill out a lot of forms for background checks and a lot of other information in advance of being able to schedule an interview including a mandatory salary history and several references among other things. I had an in person interview with the hiring manager, his manager, and the director of that division. It was fairly informal and took about 2-3 hours including some time in a panel with two people interviewing me at once.
A day or two later I had an offer. I requested a 5% increase in the base and they agreed.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
I mostly declined due to a longer commute and some misgivings about my prospective manager that developed during the interview process.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Milwaukee, WI (took a day)
I was called by a recruiter for a phone interview. She asked for me to go through my job history, knowledge of computer programs, strengths, weaknesses. My main point is that she said that she would contact me within three days of the interview, but never did. It is disappointing to receive a rejection letter but when a promise is broken, it is even more disappointing. Obviously she may contact me later but already I feel animosity towards the company.

Interviewed Oct 2010 in Maynard, MA (took a day)
Interviewed for a project management position. Initial phone call, then asked to meet in Maynard. Met with 5 people, including manager and manager's manager and some of the team. Was told they would be making a decision very quickly and would be back in touch. That was almost 3 weeks ago, and nothing. Nada. Zilch. Follow-up notes have been ignored. And these folks are in the recruitment business?
