Interviewed Jan 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took 4+ weeks)
Initial interview was a phone screen. It lasted about 20 minutes. The HR Generalist was describing the position and the requirements. My interest in the position garnered me to another phone with the HR Manager. The HR manager was concerned that the gap in my salary history and salary for the postion was too far. She was very honest in stating that her concern would be that I would not give full committment to the position. She stated that she would keep my information on file in the event a position comes open that has a salary close to my salary history. Note I said history and not expectation.

Interviewed Aug 2009 (took 6 weeks)
The interview process was unusually long. Phone interview was very detailed asking me in-depth questions about what I wrote in my resume. The interview with the hiring manager was much easier, since it would focus on concrete day-to-day issues and how I solved them. I was surprised by how much time they spent talking with my references. They essentially grilled my references about any aspect imaginable. One reference even called me complaining since it wasted considerable time from his schedule. It is probably a good practice, but they could certainly be more concise in doing it.
