Interviewed Apr 2010 in New Hope, MN (took 2 weeks)
I had a phone interview with Parker Hannifin Oildyne division here in the Twin Cities in April. About a week later they had me schedule an in-person interview. The phone interview was with an HR person, and the in-person interviews ended up being with four people, two at a time. I never met the HR person while I was on site which I found odd, and they kept talking about a manufacturing facility onsite but didn't show it to me. Again, I found that strange. In general it looked like an ok place to work but kind of boring unless you love hydraulics.

Interviewed Apr 2010 (took a day)
I was 1 of 4 candidates on the same day/time. The candidates visited [4] groups, consisting of 1 or 2 people, in a round-robin fashion. The questions were straight-forward, but I got the feeling they were searching for more than what was asked. This may have something to do with this position being new and new title to this division. Suggestions: do your research and standard interview prep.

Interviewed Feb 2010 (took 2 days)
The process started with a 1:1 on campus interview. From there, I was offered a second interview at their headquarters in Cleveland, OH. In the meantime I was asked to perform various aptitude tests, which were used in the second interview process. The second interview consisted of a dinner the night before the second interview, over-viewing Parker Hannifin and the Sales Engineer Training program. The next day, there were 5, 20 minute interviews, each with a different business segment of PH. The interviews generally had 2-3 people interviewing you at once, asking general questions about past work experience, as well as situational questions.

Interviewed Sep 2009 (took 2 weeks)
Simple 15 minute screening interview with some situational/behavioral questions. The 2nd phone interview was speaker phone with an HR manager, and to other managers. Ask a lot of fluffy questions expecting you to tell how great you are.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Toler, KY (took a day)
I had an initial interview by applying through career services. Interview, through general conversation and looking at my resume, that I may be interested in another position they had. Got called by a couple days later for the phone interview. I was interviewed by a panel of directors. Very very behavioral based questions. Think they wanted some one with more experience. I'm only entry level. Overall not too bad. About an hour over the phone.
