Interviewed Oct 2011 in Austin, TX (took a day)
Flew me out to Austin, put me up in a nice hotel with everything paid for. Had to show up bright and early on Friday. I was in an interview group of about 15 people. Day consisted of a couple presentations about NI, benefits, etc, then had to give a 10 minute technical presentation, go through about 3 1:1 interviews and a technical interview. After that they took us to dinner and downtown Austin for the night.
The technical interview was the most nerve racking but they don't look for you to have all the answers just be able to remain easy going and explore all the options in a logical and orderly manner. It's ok to say I don't know what to do next.
The 1:1 interviews sometimes overlap questions but the interviewers actually care about what you are saying and ask you questions about your answers instead of just nodding and writing down whatever you say and moving on.
Overall pretty straightforward onsite interview!

Reason for Declining
I loved NI, everything about their corporate culture really meshed with my personality but it came down to not being what I really wanted to do.
Other Details

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Austin, TX (took a day)
I met with some of the company's employees who had been through a similar program at my school's career fair. I wasn't even planning on applying to this position, but I received multiple phone calls from the employee's I had met first asking me to apply and then asking me to interview. I figured what the hell, might as well get some practice in. The interview was split up into two parts. The first part was a behavioral interview with the typical questions. The second part was a technical interview that consisted of two questions. The first was about coding and the second about designing a temperature feedback system for an air conditioning unit.

Interviewed Feb 2011 (took a day)
A 1 on 1 interview with an NI engineer lasting approx. 45 min. The interviewer was outgoing. The first part of the interview consisted of normal behavioral questions "Tell me about a time when..." very easy no right or wrong answer. However, they did ask a lot of follow up questions on your answers. Second part of the interview was technical. They made it clear that they are not looking for the exact answer but more you train of thought.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Austin, TX (took 2 days)
Phone interview consisted of some behavioral questions as well as some technical questions that were performed via online whiteboard. The technical questions were very generic - if you have a general knowledge of Computer Science/Engineering it should not be too tough. One was about binary ADC and one was a software question to write some pseudocode to describe how to perform a search algorithm. The personal interviews consisted of 5 - behavioral + some general questions about background + a technical interview. There was also a technical presentation, 10 minutes, which was also pretty simple, to judge more on how well you present.
