Interviewed Dec 2011 in Santa Clara, CA (took 3 months)
Strange experience:
1. Applied a researcher position through my university career center.
2. One recruiter emailed me that I was approved by VP as a qualified candidate (I had no idea what it meant) and distributed my resume to hiring managers who are interested.
3. One hiring manager contacted me for a phone interview regarding a hardware engineer position.
4. Phone interview was short and easy. Then I was invited for an onsite interview.
5. In the meanwhile, the recruiter initiated a background check for me (I had no idea why he initiated one so early).
6. On-site interview was easy. Several one-on-one interviews with hiring manager, and other engineers in his team. They also gave me a lab and campus tour.
7. After around a month, I was invited for a second on-site interview with higher management and other senior engineers.
8. The hiring manager promised me to make a decision after one week. But after one month, he still didn't have an answer for me.
8. The process took a long time. During the wait, I followed up with the hiring manager several times and he kept expressing his interests in me, but just can't give me an offer due to some internal issues that I don't really understand. I was left hanging in the wind for a long time and they still haven't made the decision yet. I don't wanna wait anymore and would treat it as a rejection and move on.
9. I still don't receive the refund of my travel expense as of yet.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 weeks)
The initial interview was with a local HR manager and associates. It seems very normal that they asked usual questions like who I am, what I have done, and what my skills are. The next step was to meet with actual reporting line manager, coming from the other region. I declined to proceed with the interview due to his unprofessional impression.

Interviewed Nov 2010 (took 2 weeks)
Relevant questions to role. Skills matching and interview with potential teammates.
In person and over the phone.
Be prepared to interview with folks you think have no bearing on your role, but remember them because you need a strong network to survive at this company.
Hiring process can take a long time, up to 5 months. So you need to be sure you really want the role and stay committed.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Prague (Czech Republic) (took 4 weeks)
First phase was 1 hour phone interview during which you're asked basic question such as "why our company? what do you think makes you a good fit for the job? etc" Second phase was interview face-to-face with the manager and senior manager - again pretty standard questions for this position. 3rd phase was the most interesting as this was sales scene where you had to represent the business in telephone conversation with existing client. Conversation was based on materials received prior to interview (one clue - focus on the scope of telephone conversation !!! every other comment to be abandoned ;) ) Overall impression I'd say average despite visible effort that company / interviewers tried to make. In some moments it looked like they were focused more on themselves rather than the goal of the meetings.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Redwood City, CA (took a day)
The phone interview was not thorough enough. The job description claimed that there would be "Special projects" available to assist you towards advancement in the company. I was enlightened during the live interview that this was in fact not the case, and probably never would be. Other negative job responsibilities were withheld too, e.g. no contact with another human being for sometimes 4-6- hours at a time.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
The position ended up not being what I wanted. Actual job responsibilities did not utilized my skills/abilities acquired from previous work experience.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview and a 1:1 Interview.
