Interviewed Aug 2010 in Lynchburg, VA (took a day)
Pretty easy. Just had a 1:1 interview with the owner, and then a group interview with my direct supervisor and the owner. It consisted of your normal interview questions.

No negotiations. Just recently bought by ResCare, which is a huge billion dollar corporation. Probably way better benefits and salaries than before.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Houston, TX (took 2 weeks)
The interview was very unprofessional. I was wearing a suit but the 'regional managers' were wearing jeans and flip flops. They barely asked me any questions but were very honest about the companies shortcomings. No preparation needed. They just read from your resume and ask questions.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
The job was only good in title. They wanted someone with a BS/BA but when the salaried position was calculated per hour it broke down to 11.31. Also if you are any type of manager you have to be on call 24/7/365 and if someone calls out, YOU have to work a 16 hour shift UNPAID before overtime to can be approved.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Houston, TX (took 2 days)
Structured interview; asking "canned" questions.
However, I learned later that nobody is trained in interviewing techniques, so they didn't even know what to look for in the answers.

You apply online, and then interview with whomever your supervisor will be. There are predetermined questions that are asked, and your answers are written down. Some questions are general and some are very detailed. They are the usual interview questions you get at every interview.

Interviewed Dec 2009 (took a day)
I applied in early October and was called in to interview in mid-November. One worker held the door for me as I entered the building. I was interviewed by a panel which consisted of one peer and one manager. Both were quite friendly and helped me feel at ease. I felt like I could be myself and let my personality shine through.

Interviewed May 2011 (took 3 days)
Interview was set up via email by Regional HR Director. Interviewed by panel of 3. Each took turns asking behavioral questions from list. Very serious, and methodical. Did not go off script at all. They seemed to be looking for a specific answer to their pre-set questions. I found it difficult to clarify what they were asking.
Encourage candidates to prepare by going in with a list of accomplishments that they emphasize throughout the interview. Show how their accomplishments are critical to skills necessary for the position for which they are applying.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Evansville, IN (took 1+ week)
In applied online, but did not revcieve a responce. I then went in to speak with the HR department, where we discovered that my application was never submitted dispite my email of submittance. I resubmitted an application and was given my first interview. It was brief and gave me very little information about what the rest of the interview/ training would be of.
I recieved a call for another interview for 3 hours after the call and was given instructions to get 4 written letters of recommendations and have them ready intime for my second interview. It was not easy, but i pulled it off.
Next, i was sent to my work site for the final interview before begining the training for the job. A week later, i learned that the position i was being considered for was filled so i begain a long training process without any knowlege of where i would be working or what i would be doing.
The training process lasts a 2 weeks, the first is classroom from 8 am to 5 pm monday-friday and the second is site training. after completing all of that, i was placed in limbo for about a week before being assigned and begaining work at my new site.

The interview was very basic. I was interviewed 1 on 1 by a supervisor that I had for years. It was comfortable and more of a conversation.
