Interviewed Jun 2011 in Norristown, PA (took a day)
First I was shown around the lab where I would be working. Then while in the lab I was awkwardly asked a series of interview questions by two quest lab employees. They wrote all of my answers down. Asked things like "what motivates you", "how do you motivate others", etc. Then I was taken into an office with two men who were both very boring, uninterested and cold. The office I was in was 100 degrees. I was wearing a full suit and everyone else had shorts and short sleeved shirts. After the interview I asked them when I could expect to hear from them regardless of their decision. They told me at some point in the summer. I was NEVER contacted. Bad experience, not professional.

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took a day)
30 minute phone interview that I felt went extremely well. Mostly consisting of questions on past experience, and name a time this or that happened and what did you do. Majority were behavioral questions and of course work history and what it consisted of. Wanted to know more about personality etc. However I feel it was unprofessional to say I WOULD be getting a call within 2 days and then to never receive a call. What she SHOULD have said is; If my manager is interested you will be getting a call, not you WILL get a call.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Collegeville, PA (took 2 days)
Had a phone interview with the HR first who detailed me about the company and job position. She also confirmed my availability. It was a general screening wherein I was invited for face-to-face interview then and there.
Face to face interview happened at the company's location. It was a panel of three managers in the Decision Support Group itself. They asked me -
summary of my resume
experience in group work
team behavior
projects
my past work experience
how efficient I am with the Skills that i have mentioned on the resume
behavioral questions like what if a team member is not responding to task the he/she is expected to.
After this interview, I had a very friendly interview with the Director of Finance. She was describing me the company's environment and what i might be expected to do.
I was selected for the job and was given a call the very next day.

Interviewed Jan 2009 in Austin, TX (took 2 weeks)
Must apply online. Sometimes you have to be persistent to actually get a call back. Also, after online interview you must complete an online evaluation of skills. This is not a big deal and everybody passes. Casual one on one interview with supervisor to review experience and skills. Supervisors are very nice and easy to talk to, so there is no need to be nervous. Offered the job upon completion of interview.

Interviewed Jan 2009 (took 2 weeks)
There was a very relaxed atmosphere, most likely attributed by the overall comfort and satisfaction demonstrated by all employees and Staff. If you are a caring person who loves working with people in health profesions, you will feel very comfortable. The entire Staff consists of highly trained professional in their respected positions, without exception.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Tulsa, OK (took 2 weeks)
Applied to company website. Contacted by recruiter for phone interview. Took a couple of weeks to set up. Normal interview questions. Recruiter told me about the position, but didn't want to know too much about me. I'm sure my year of graduation scared him away. Age discrimination in the workplace ???
