Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 2 days)
Two phone interviews. Both by same individual. Very honest, we discussed the advantages and disadvantages of the job. I was asked general questions about my research, and career goals.
Two day on campus interview. I met many people on the team I was interviewing with. Many questions involved whether I wanted to leave academia, why I was interested there. Very friendly atmoshphere.
I gave a very good talk. I had prepared and practiced. I was given many questions, some challenging during/ after the talk.

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 3 days)
Provided transportation, room and car which was very nice, very interesting culture there and unlike any other research groups I have ever seen. Location could use some work! Involved being interviewed by 6 or 7 separate people throughout the day which was pretty intense and security is taken very seriously.

Interviewed Mar 2008 in Knoxville, TN (took 2 days)
I interviewed for two days by giving presentation and talking to the people who work in the group I was interviewing for. The presentation ended with in-depth questioning on the research topic of the presentation. One on one interviews were targeted towards evaluating my interpersonal skills as well as technical qualification.

Interviewed Mar 2009 in Oak Ridge, TN (took 3 weeks)
I received a call from the supervisor, scheduled an interview, talked to the three group members about the position and my skills/experience, the average work day, and my interests as far as a career. The group members were dressed casually in jeans, tennis shoes/boots, and had a relaxed demeanor. They have been this way for the past year I worked here and only dress up for conferences and media events. They maintain a professional attitude most of the time and rarely speak badly about each other. Good atmosphere to work in.

Interviewed May 2010 in Oak Ridge, TN (took a day)
I first received an e-mail saying that I was invited to interview. During the on-site interview, I had an hour-long one on one interview with the principal investigator of the project I would be working on, a thirty-minute interview with two HR representatives, a site tour, lunch, gave my presentation, ending with a lengthy Q&A with the selection committee about my presentation and other general questions related to the position. Seemed like a friendly work atmosphere.
