Interviewed Mar 2009 (took 2 days)
First had a phone interview with standard background and experience questions. Lasted about 30 minutes. Then had 1:1 interview with District Manager. Very professional, asked about my past pharma experience with emphasis on prior awards and accolades. Decided I did not want to go back to calling on PCP's which is what the position was for, and declined the 2nd interciew.

Interviewed Sep 2008 in Malvern, PA (took a day)
I applied for this position on my University's job board. I was contacted within 2 days to come in for an on-site interview. Two people interviewed me, one was friendly and smiled at me in encouragement every time I answered the question and the other was of a stern demeanor. I was asked to go over my resume and discuss experience that was relevant to the position. Half hour into the interview, they probably made up their minds to hire me because the style of the interview changed from "tell me about this project in your resume" to "I think you will enjoy this ongoing project with our company because of your experience". After this, they explained the position and the company and gave me a tour of the facility. I received an offer within one week and I accepted.
