1:1 followed by group and then a presentation. The people were nice and very structured. It was important to inform why you were keen to join the company and what your long term goals were

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 2 weeks)
They asked some basic questions why SI, why this role. I was given very little time to prepare and throughout the interview it sounded like the interviewer was not very interested and was just completing the formality. There were no questions related to my background or my work experience which was relevant to the position. Needless to say they completed the formality and did not make an offer.
