Interviewed Sep 2008 in Chicago, IL (took 4+ weeks)
Interviewed with 4 different people: a senior in the group, the lead scientist in the group, the group leader, and an HR specialist. Seemed like pretty routine questions. Mostly only challenged by the scientist.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Lowball offer. I took it because I needed the job. Asking around to coworkers, it seems like their offers are usually based on previous salary, not about merit.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a Background Check and a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 1 week)
The interview process was very laid back. They make sure you know your stuff but not in the overly intimidating way that some other corps enjoy

Interviewed Jun 2008 in Chicago, IL (took 1+ week)
I received a phone call from the HR department to set up an interview, then met with my prospective manager and another person who held the position I was applying for. That interview lasted about an hour, then I was called back a few days later to set up a second interview. HR then ran a background check.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Chicago, IL (took 6 weeks)
After SIX WEEKS of back and forth from their HR dept, I finally got an interview scheduled. Interview day comes, and interviewer gets tied up in a meeting. I received no notification until TWO hours of waiting around like a donkey. I still have yet to have the phone interview, but after seeing this hiring process circus act, Im extremely reluctant to even set foot in this place.

Interviewed May 2010 in Frankfurt am Main (Germany) (took 3 weeks)
After first phone call I was invited for personal interview. They ask only in general what I did etc and it seems that interview was going well until we came to "salary expectation question" I said 80000/ year and they were really surprised and this was probably the reason why I didn't get any offer.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Wayne, PA (took 2 days)
I met them at the career fair. I gave them my resume and they scheduled an interview.
During the interview there were two people, a developer and an HR person. They asked me technical and general questions about what I wanted to do in the future and why I wanted to work there. They are a growing company working on location based advertising and maps for GPS systems.
Three days later, they called me and offered me the position and asked me when I wanted to start working.

Interviewed Feb 2008 in Chicago, IL (took 4 weeks)
Initial screen with HR; just a resume review.
1st round of 4 interviews with Managers and Directors in the target group and adjacent groups. Progressed to 2nd round 2 weeks later with 2 SVPs, 1 EVP, and CFO.
1st round had a handful of light case interviews, 2nd round seemed more like fit interviews.

Interviewed Feb 2008 in Chicago, IL (took 2 days)
Interview process was very unprofessional to say the least. The director I interviewed with was multi-tasking while I was in the office being interviewed. Questions were all over the board while she was IM'ng whoever and answering emails during the interview - because she was getting ready to go get married that weekend - the interview was on the Friday before.....
I couldn't contain my annoyance and I'm sure my face showed it.
A couple of year's later I was contacted for a contract position there by a recruiter. He asked me if I interviewed with NAVTEQ before, I answered yes and told him about the time frame and the fact that it was a full-time position. After he submitted my resume, he called me back indicating that the person who got my resume looked me up in their system and declined to interview me.
Wow! - seems like they keep you in their database and add comments so you can be tagged on a blacklist.
I am happily employed somewhere else right now - these two experiences are enough for me to say never again....
