Interviewed Aug 2011 in Emmaus, PA (took a day)
I was interested in Senior Researcher position, applied online, next day received a phone call.
It went fairly well. I think though my qualifications did not quite match the requirements for the job.
I was asked about my previous job experiences, education, what do I know about the company and why would I like to work for Rodale.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Emmaus, PA (took 2 days)
There was the initial telephone interview with standard questions such as past employment, skills, why you are looking to leave and what is it about this job that interests you. A week or so later was a face to face interview with the hiring manager, the incument I would be replacing and also HR. What stayed with me was how pleasant they all were and what a relaxing and calm environment Rodale had. It would have been a joy to work there.

Interviewed Mar 2010 (took 2 weeks)
I applied for this position online and within a few days was contacted for an interview with an HR representative. It was a very general informational interview where we discussed my work history which lasted about 40 minutes. The next week I was brought in to meet the hiring manager, where we talked for almost 2 hours. The hiring manager asked me specific questions about the projects I worked on; she seemed very interested in my current employer's processes.
