Interviewed Sep 2010 in Tampa, FL (took 1 week)
3 people panel interview. They ask questions regarding how you handle stressful situations. Describe how you would handle a tough client. Testing is easy. Some other questions we about your customer service background and your ability to get along with people from all different socio-economical backgrounds. There were about 8-9 questions and it took about 45 minutes. A week later, I got an offer and accepted it.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took a day)
I was initially contacted by phone to see if I was still interested in the job. At the time, the agency had a very low salary requirement they were willing to pay for the position. We did not schedule an interview at that time do to the salary. The next day, I sent an email to the individual who contacted me to let them know if their flexibility with salary requirement changes or if they wanted me to share lessons learn from implementing a PMO to feel free to contact me. About 2 weeks later I received a call for an interview. The team I interviewed with was very pleasant. At the time of the interview, they just didn't know what direction they really wanted for this position within their PMO.

Interviewed Dec 2009 (took 2 weeks)
Initial contact was via recruiter from a staffing agency. The recruiter performed the initial screen including drug test and skills testing via online site.
After passing the screening, I was interviewed directly by the hiring agency with i the state. The interview consisted of 2/4 originally scheduled participants asking standard personality questions and grading me on a somewhat random technical questions. I scored high on both portions and was presented with an offer 7 days later.

No negotiation as the ofter was predicated on my acceptable range listed on Dice.com. I found out that they started high because my apparent range was higher than what they wanted to pay but the Agency really wanted me after my performance during the interview.
