Interviewed Apr 2012 in Orlando, FL (took a day)
I think I applied for the position through CareerBuilder, and was then contacted by a recruiter weeks later. We talked about the position, but once he said Siemens, I was already interested! It took about two weeks to finally get a response that an interview would like to be set up (I had contacted the recruiter once per week on the status). I finally made it to the interview which consisted of two people, an employee and his manager. The questions were basic interview questions to get more detail on my resume. The interviewers were not uptight, they were themselves which made me comfortable to ask questions in response to some of the stories they told about their co-workers and the environment. Overall, my advice would be to just know what you're talking about in response to your resume, and be yourself! This landed me the position I wanted!

Negotiation Details
Being that I was unemployed, I was open to any rate of pay, as long as I got my foot in the door. There was not that much to negotiate as the recruiting company already had the rate set for my temporary time period. I am assuming, once this becomes permanent I will then negotiate my salary.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Group/Panel Interview, a Drug Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in San Jose, CA (took 3 days)
Interviewing was cordial but the hiring manager was not friendly at all. It was also very obvious that it was a very stressful work culture as Siemens had recently acquired some companies and was involved in a difficult merger and acquisition (M&A) process. Finally, there was some disconnect between the HR group and the hiring manager, since many of the job requirements were not properly listed in the job specification or requirements. I was under the impression that due to the M&A, even the HR team was highly overloaded with work.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
The work culture and environment seemed overly hectic and the position I applied for should have been filled many months ago, requiring unhealthy levels of time commitment up front.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Background Check.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Orlando, FL (took a day)
Went in for a one day interview to their facility in Orlando, FL. Typical interview consisting of one 1:1 interview with HR and 2 group interviews with engineering managers. There were approximately 15 other interviewees there at the same time. Interviewers were friendly and outgoing made us feel comfortable. No technical questions were asked. Mainly just your cookie cutter personality questions. "When was the last time you had to overcome an obstacle" stuff you should be prepared to answer. There were two think outside the box questions.

Interviewed May 2010 (took a day)
The recruiter was over 30 minutes late calling me for a 30 minute phone interview. I actually called corporate to find out if the interview was still on. She got mad at me for not just waiting for her to call which I thought was odd. The questions were simply expanding on your resume. The recruiter did not have a pleasant attitude.

Interviewed Nov 2009 (took a day)
The interview was for the EIT program. The interviewer asked basic interview questions like: "describe how you dealt with a disgruntled employer or coworker over an argument." They were able to answer a lot of the questions I had about the training program. I thought the interview went fairly well, however, I was told I would be told via email if I made it to the second round of interviews, but NEVER heard from the recruiter again.
