Moved on to the in person interviews in Orlando, with about 30 or so other interviewees.

Interview Details – I applied online and several weeks passed before I received a call from a recruiter. The call was to schedule an interview the following week. The interview was 2 on 1 and consisted of many questions about previous work experience and knowledge with computer applications. The interview seemed to have gone well, although it did feel rather short. I was told I'd be getting a call back but never did.
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Orlando, FL Apr 2012 – Reviewed Apr 22, 2012
Interview Details – 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!
Interview Questions
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.

Interview Details – 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.

Interview Details – I applied for this position through my university in the spring of 2009. I got an interview which was 1 on 1 with an experienced engineer who was also the hiring manager for the position. This man was an exceptional conversationalist and I felt comfortable talking with him about my accomplishments. He also answered any questions that I had. Unfortunately I did not get this position, but my feeling is that they were looking for the absolute top students.
Interview Question – Can you tell me a little bit about yourself? Answer Question
Declined Offer – Interviewed in Orlando, FL Mar 2008 – Reviewed Mar 18, 2009
Interview Details – The hiring process was very formal and well-organized. I was impressed with the commitment to the process. After an initial contact at a job fair, I was given a 1:1 interview with a local company representative. Accepting a 2nd interview, the company flew about 30 candidates to the US HQ in Orlando. The process included an evening dinner at a local restaurant with high level managers, hotel stay, and a full day of information sessions interleaved with 3 interviews. Two panel interviews (3:1,2:1) on different topics, as well as a 1:1 psych/personality interview. I received an offer within two weeks, however the acceptance window was smaller than desired. Also, response to further emailed questions about the position/company were minimal.
Interview Question – Situational questions. How to respond to a belligerent customer or coworker. Answer Question
Reason for Declining – I received an offer for a position that I discerned was/is better in line with my current career goals, in an industry that I had more interest in, for a company with operating ideals more to my liking.
