Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 5 weeks)
I applied online on 12/10 or 12/11. I got an e-mail from HR on 12/12 saying they wanted to set up a phone interview on 12/16. The HR person asked if I would be available for an in-person interview later the same day, if the phone interview went well. I had a phone interview with the plant manager and the head of the US EHS group. They invited me to come down for the in-person interview. I met with the plant manager and the current EHS manager. They spoke with me for a while in a fairly informal manner and then gave me a tour around the facility. The whole meeting lasted about 2 hours. They were very down-to-earth and friendly. Several weeks later, in the new year, the HR person told me that they wanted me to come down for a 2nd in-person interview to meet 2 EHS specialists from another facility. The 2nd interview was a meeting with the plant manager, an EHS person from US headquarters, and another EHS person from another NJ facility. It was more in-depth and included more specific questions about my technical experience. The discussion went well and I felt very comfortable. It lasted about 2 hours.

Interviewed Sep 2010 (took 2 days)
Phone screen, then hired as temp, which got to work or a long time with high pay. There was no rush to hire, and good feedback, but would not commit.
Very structured interview. A lot of questions, with 4-5 different people. A lot of "tell me a time when", or "how would you deal with", but very little related to the job, or work.

Negotiation Details
The negotiation phase made me feel dirty and not treated fairly. It was like dealing with a used car sales person.

Interviewed May 2010 in Kansas City, MO (took 4 weeks)
Interview was what you would expect from a pharma company these days. Questions comprised of basic questions you'd have in any interview (strengths, weaknesses, why you want the job, what do you know about us, etc.), but the majority of the questions were situational or behavioral questions. Don't expect to be asked any google-style questions-the behavioral questions were also run of the mill.
Had a normal 3 rounds of interviews: HR screen, one on one with the Hiring Manager, and then on-site with multiple people, in my case there were 5 interviews during the on-site.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took 4+ weeks)
Had to go through 6 different interviews and each lasted one and half hours. I was quized on the GCPs and CFR's and expected to be able to know what 21 CFR Part 56 was off the top of my head. I was a bit surprised since I know the GCPs and CFRs, but could not tell you what 6 of them were since some were so obscure.

Interviewed Aug 2010 (took a day)
I was contacted by thier recruiter who set up a phone interview with the hiring manager. I spoke to the hiring manager and he explained the position and the department. They have 1000+ servers and 10 administrators. He asked about my experience relating to the position. He then stated that the position was expected to work from home after hours and it would not be an 8 hour a day job. He also stated that the Admns worked at least one Saturday a month to update servers, and posibly two weekends in this particular office due to the number of servers. They keep a lean staff and expect a lot from them (His words). I'm glad he made his expectation clear from the start. I have not heard back form anyone about the position.

Interviewed Aug 2008 in Forest, VA (took 4+ weeks)
Met representative from company at a college career fair. Shortly after (approximately 1 week) received a phone call from an HR rep to set up a phone interview. The 1st phone interview was with an HR rep. The interview was very basic. Essentially just go over your past experience and what's on your resume. About 3 to 4 days later I received a phone call for a 2nd phone interview with the hiring manager. The 2nd interview consisted of questions regarding my past experience. Following the phone interview was a face to face interview on site. The on site interview consisted of behavioral type questions. There was an emphasis on working in a team environment and prioritizing works assignments. Problem solving is also very important.

Interviewed Apr 2010 (took 1 week)
Hiring manager was very charismatic. Specific questions related to BGP/EIGRP. Specific questions related to project management and current projects that were either completed or currently in process. Also had some personal questions related to career growth and whether or not I was a 9-5 type person or if I was willing to resolve an issue no matter the time frame.
