Interviewed Nov 2011 in Farmington Hills, MI (took 5 weeks)
After submitting a resume, I was contacted by HR to schedule an initial phone interview. The phone interview consisted of basic interview questions, especially behavior based. Immediately following the phone interview, I was asked to complete a personality test. After submitting the personality test, I was sent a financial case study with instructions and deadlines. After submitting the case study, I was asked to come in for a final interview at the Farmington Hills location and was told to prepare a Powerpoint presentation of the financial case study I had submit. The interview lasted about 5 hours; it consisted of panel interviewing, a presentation, and and on the spot team challenge.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Broadview, IL (took 2 weeks)
Very broad and friendly initial phone interview with HR, then an in-person interview with HR and the CS Mgr. with extensive questions regarding experience and skills. They seemed very pleased with my credentials and a recent history of solving issues similar to their own. They were vague concerning timeline to hire and compensation. Seemed like a good company to work for, with many internal opportunities, but no clear vision for project scope or duration.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 2+ weeks)
Initial screening interview was by phone. It consisted of routine behavioral-based questions, supplemented by resume-specific questions. A few days after the initial interview, I received a financial case study. I had one week to prepare a spreadsheet concerning the case study. The case study included both quantitative questions and qualitative/analytical questions. A few days after submitting my case study, I received a follow-up question concerning the case. Two weeks later, I received an invitation to come to the corporate headquarters.
In preparation for the final day of interviews, I had to prepare a PowerPoint presentation to present my case study findings. They then flew me to the corporate offices for a day of activities. There were a mixture of MBA/graduate applicants for a managerial development program and undergraduate applicants for a finance development program. I was impressed by the quality of the applicants, though somewhat concerned that they were all men (diversity is important to me).
I presented the case study to a finance representative and an hr rep. In addition to a number of traditional one-on-one interviews, there was a small-group problem-solving activity. Two other applicants and I were given a mini case study and 20 minutes to discuss the situation and make a recommendation. We were observed in this process by four representatives of the company. I thought this was a very creative interviewing technique, clearly designed to show how we work with others, and I enjoyed participating.
We had lunch with a couple of new finance employees, then some of us were invited for further interviews with managers and mentors. By the end of the day, I believe I'd had five or six one-on-one interviews.
It became clear after meeting with so many people who'd been with the company a long time that there was something special about the company. I was delighted to receive an offer by telephone a week later. My HR contact asked how I'd found my visit. I expressed (honestly) how much I enjoyed the process and how remarkable I found it that so many people had been with the company 20 or 25 years. I then received the offer, which I had three weeks to consider.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 1 week)
The phone interview was very simple. Unfortunately, I don't think I had an interviewer who actually cared. It seemed like she was just going through the behavioral-based questions that she was told to. After the 15 minute question, I was asked how busy I was with school. I gave her my answer, but once again I don't think she was actually listening to what I said. As soon as I finished talking she gave me a survey to fill out within 48 hours and a case study to complete in a week. I completed it and submitted it, then received the "there are better canidates" email. That was it.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Broadview, IL (took 3 days)
They ask you the basic questions, strengths, weakness, why should they choose/what sets you apart from everyone else. They do a phone screening, then bring you in for a face-to-face interview. Then you hear back, and then its a drug test and background check and youre in!

Interviewed Apr 2009 (took 2 months)
Initially had a phone interview with member of human resources. After that I interviewed with the same associate on the phone. He informed me at the interview that he would bring me in to have a 2nd interview. I met with several members of the team that I would be working for. The process was long but I love the job and it is a stable company.

Interviewed May 2011 in Farmington Hills, MI (took 3 weeks)
I was contacted by the hiring manager on phone to schedule an interview the following week . She mentioned that it would be a mix of technical and behavioral. I prepared for the behavioral aspect of the interview by looking up all the STAR based questions I possibly could and correlated them to suit my profile. On the technical front, I read about the job profile and spoke to three other acquaintances who worked at Bosch to find out how their technical interviews went. I proceeded to also prepare for technical questions at glassdoor.com and brushed up on my Resume. I was interviewed by two engineers i the department I was to work for. It lasted for an hour and was purely technical. They mentioned that they would let me know of the outcome in two weeks time. After much calling, emailing and leaving various voice mails, I was sent an email that they had hired someone else. From what I have experienced, my interview went off well. This is the right place to be if someone wants to be purely technical for a long time to come. I am not at authority to comment on work culture or the office since my whole experience at the company lasted only for an hour and a half at most.
