Interviewed Jun 2010 in San Diego, CA (took 2 weeks)
I applied online, then was called for a phone interview. About a week later, I was asked to come in for an on-site interview with 3 people. Another few days later they called me with a few follow up questions, which I apparently answered correctly because they offered me the job at the end of that last phone conversation.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 2 weeks)
I had an initial "phone screening" and just got called back for an interview. The phone screening consisted of the questions:
What do you know about Planned Parenthood?
How do you feel about working for an org that performs abortions?
This is a one year grant, is that OK with you?
If you are hired can you start immediately?
Do you have a license and insurance?
Tell me about your organizing experience.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Seattle, WA (took 1 week)
Multi-step interview, including interview with HR, interview with department head, and references were checked. Fairly simple questions, most of which were concerned with what the company stood for. Interview consisted of 6-8 questions and gave me plenty of time to ask questions.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in New York, NY (took 2 months)
I was contacted for a phone interview a month after I applied online. I had a phone interview with someone in HR. The interview was pretty standard, describe work duties, expected salary, etc. After a week went by, I contacted them for a status update since I have not heard anything. I was told that they would be scheduling in-person interviews shortly. I did not hear anything after that. A month later, I received an email that the position was filled. If they do not want to pursue a candidate's application further, they should just let the person know rather than string them along. I have to agree with a previous post, they lead you to believe that you are a candidate for the position.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took 1+ week)
I came in and talked to a couple different people at once. It was the HR manager and the IT director. They at first explained the position and gave me and overview of what I would do in this position. They asked me about my background and what I had done since college. Some specific questions I remember:
What do you normally try to do to troubleshoot a problem?
What would you to gain the knowledge in order to fill your job requirements?
