Interviewed Mar 2011 in Nashville, TN (took a day)
This was a preliminary phone interview through my campus career center. It went very smoothly mostly consisting of simple questions and 4 complex behavioral questions. Was very conversational and recruiter quickly put me at ease. I have accepted a second round interview, and will update when the outcome of that is known. Would like a little more information on the position, had to get most of it from the recruiter.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Alpharetta, GA (took a day)
The representative that contacted me did a thorough job exploring my skill set. He was fully prepared for the phone interview when, in the past, I have encoutered many people who seemed to approach this task with a quick look-over of my resume and a shallow set of questions. The phone and face-to-face interview each lasted 2 hours. The phone interview covered most of the technical aspects of the position. In person, there were a lot more questions to analyze your character. Many questions about how you would handle certain situations. Be prepared for an in-depth screening with this group. From the few people I interacted with, it's obvious they've got sharp employees working within the company. I consider tough interviews good - if you're someone like me, you want to know that there is a genuine effort within the company to hire competent people.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Dallas, TX (took a day)
The interview was obtained through the university career fair. The job position listed on the site for system application engineer was very vague. When I researched the company I found that it was a company that was very focused on energy management and improving reliability and efficiency of industrial power systems. This was of interest for me because my area of focus is power system analysis. However, the in position the interviewer outlined was more of a programming based position. The position was for a company that Schneider had recently bought out and was located in Dallas. They were in charge of designing and integrating HVAC systems into building projects. Although the interview went well I realized that the position wasn't a good fit for me because programming isn't my strength. Also, the interviewing style was a little different that what I was used too. He did not ask me any questions, just outlined the position and answered any questions that I had, then gave me about 15 minutes towards the end to brag about myself. I wish the position description was a little more detailed.
