Interviewed Mar 2009 in Downers Grove, IL (took a day)
SL likes a can do attitude, be inspired, but be prepared to work very hard.
They want the world from you but not willing to pay for it. Interview process was typical
they are very particular in what they want and play the who you know game.

Interviewed Apr 2010 (took 1+ week)
Job was far from what was sold to me, vastly different responsibilities when compared to same title at competitors.
Interview consisted of a run-down of CV, followed by competency questions.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Downers Grove, IL (took 2 weeks)
I received an initial phone interview and I thought all went well. I was told I would be contacted next week since they had more people to interview. I didn't hear back, so I sent two emails to the HR manager. Still no word 2 weeks later.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Phoenix, AZ (took 3 weeks)
The interview panel consisted of the HR Manager and the Production manager. The pannel asked a large number of questions, "Describe a time when you had trouble with an employee, difficult situation, how did you handle it ect". Did not go well, It was late in the day and it was clear the panel was more interested in going home than the process. I was promised notification, however they never called back even after several calls and emails to determine status of process.
