Interviewed Mar 2012 in Baton Rouge, LA (took a day)
Preselect throught campus services. On campus Interview with 2 HR representatives. One experienced and one new to the company. Of all the interviews I had on campus this is by far the worst experience. Very critical of my alternative background. After the interview HR then stated that they would make a decision within a week, which they did. However, after asking for and receiving his business card the representative was rude and stated that he wouldn't return phone calls, and he may return emails. Even if he is as busy as he said, there are more polite ways to state that. Very dissapointing experience for what is essential a subpar position in a low-paying industry.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Berkeley, CA (took 1 week)
I did a skype interview with the hiring manager. He asked me basic questions about my social life: things about my sorority, my business fraternity, how many hours I wanted to work, etc. Its a pretty easy interview, just appear to be social, and you'll do fine. Be SURE to dress professionally, even if it is just a skype interview (I wore pajama bottoms, but he would have no idea I did this because I was sitting on a chair)

Interviewed May 2011 (took 2 days)
I was asked about my past teaching experiences. Part of the job was also included working with technology. I demonstrated this by programing an ACC device and researching how these programs could be transfered to ipod/ipad devices. The third component was how I interacted and created therapy plans for clients.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 days)
Recruiter contacted me and asked me couple of basic questions. After you pass that, they decide to meet a convenient location to interview you in person. Resume is discussed. They mainly try to match your past experience with the fit for the job description you applied for. Managers interviewing are always very nice and make you feel very comfortable rather then nervous.

Interviewed Sep 2011 (took a day)
Met at college career fair, gave them my resume and was called later in the day for an interview. The interview consisted of 3 people asking mostly behavioral questions. Make sure you know everything on your resume.
1 person took notes while the other 2 asked questions. The main interviewer asked most of the questions on a list in front of him, while the other asked questions for further details or specificity. It was a difficult interview because I felt like I was being scrutinized heavily by the additional interviewer, as she would ask additional questions or make additional comments. It seemed like she was there to make you second guess yourself.
The main interviewer did not ask for elaborations and the note taker did not ask any questions or make any comments.

Interviewed Feb 2011 (took 1 week)
There were three steps to the interview:
1. Being contacted by a hiring manager via phone and the initial phone interview.
2. Being contacted by the market manager via phone for a second interview
3. Meeting a rep from the company in person for a one on one interview.
The entire process took about a week.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in Irving, TX (took 1+ week)
Interviews were mostly phone interviews, with one in person interview with the hiring manager. He was new to the company and didn't have a lot of positive insights to share and strategy for overcoming the obstacles he listed. His senior manager shared plans for tackling obstacles in the organization.

Interviewed Oct 2010 in Las Vegas, NV (took 2 weeks)
I applied online through snag-a-job.com, one week later I got a email from the company for a telephone interview and from there I was scheduled to appear in person for a 1;1, 3 days later i appeared for interview and was asked specific questions of experience for planograms and reseting modules. This experience was recently used and I have used it over the past 7yrs. I was hired and giving instructions to drug test, I would start work on the bby project at the end of September and I was for-warned that it would not last past 4wks. But, now that I am a employee I would be the first to be considered for future employment.
