Interviewed Jul 2010 (took a day)
Initial contact was over the phone. Additionally, the initial interview was over the phone. My particular interview did not go as well as I expected because there were some questions I could not answer properly. I think the initial phone interview should have been outlined to me in our initial phone conversation as a prospective employee. Overall, the process was decent.
