Interviewed Feb 2012 in San Diego, CA (took 4+ weeks)
Be prepared with whatever they ask on their website... Make sure you meet the requirements. Phone interview is very basic on resume and a couple of positions closely related to the position. If there are 7-10 requirements listed, please know atleast the basics of those 7-10 requirements. On site will be very fickle. There is no real preparation possible. I was asked questions only on my resume even onsite.
Make sure your C skills are good enough.
