Interviewed Nov 2011 in Milpitas, CA (took a day)
It's an 8-hour interview, 8 interviewers, one at a time. People are nice, they are confident about their company. They didn't ask any behavioral questions, it's all technical questions. The working environment is good.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Milpitas, CA (took a day)
This was an initial interview with the recruiter and hiring manager, one hour with the hiring manager and 1/2 hour with the recruiter. The interview style was more behavioral based. It seems that this was their standard style, as both the hiring manager and the recruiter asked the same questions. The company itself is very fast paced, and competive.

Interviewed with a member Human Resources department. Very friendly and relaxed interview. A few very typical behavioral questions. The HR member wasn't able to give me any feedback or timelines as they had to re-check with their manager.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Philadelphia, PA (took 4+ weeks)
Took quite a while to get back to me, and then out of the blue called me to talk about the position while I was on Spring Break. Interviewed on the phone then passed to second rounds. Finally did second rounds over skype, where the interviewer mentioned that they had wanted to bring me back to the Bay area, but had decided to save money and just do it over skype (a bit miffed over that)
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
Not my type of job at all. No supervision, no feedback
Other Details
I got the interview through a College or University and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Skills Test and a Personality Test.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Milpitas, CA (took 1 week)
I applied for the internship through my university's job board and I received a phone call within a few days. It was a phone interview and a few behavioral questions were asked. I would receive an email in a few days if I was selected for an on-site interview. I got an on-site interview and had 6 people interview me one after another. 5 were from the group that I would be working with plus the recruiter. After that, I never heard from them again. I made a call 2 weeks later to the recruiter who told me that someone else had received the offer.

Negotiation Details
Original Offer itself was super competitive.Managed a slight adjustment to base pay. Cannot change bonus target or no of options allotted as it depends on grade level. Total comp is above industry standard. I guess more work more pay policy works here.
