Interviewed Nov 2011 in Baltimore, MD (took 2 days)
Telephone Interview with H/R Manager, followed by 1:1 Interview with H/R manager.
Two panel Interviews: 1st with Peers in position and h/r.
Second with two next levels of management including direct supervisor, site manager, and peers of direct manager.
Lots of canned behavioral questions in panel interviews such as: Give an example when you encountered this scenario. Have you ever had to do this... etc. Everyone in the panels working from pre-printed forms and writing down everything I said.
The site manager was more focused and attitude, management philosophy, and customer service focus. H/R verified qualifications - more of a rundown of my resume/application.
The culture appears to be very people-oriented - caring - very concerned about feelings, perceptions, work-family balance issues.
I was called by H/R several days later with the decline indicating that a more precise match with a candidate in the automotive industry was selected.

Interviewed Jul 2011 (took 3 months)
phone interview good. face interview is all about psychological and "suppose" questions. management was unfriendly. many positions that are full time are later turned to contract jobs. better to have someone from inside bring you in

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Torrance, CA (took 2 weeks)
Was recruited on campus. Did one on one campus interview and was invited to Portland, OR for more interviews. Had only two 15 minute interviews and then there was a 30 minute panel interview for the next day. I did not qualify for that interview. Job wasn't quite what I thought it was going to be. I thought it was more of a consulting position but it was more of a "help the dealers execute their ideas" type of position. They emphasized that you have to move at the drop of a hat. Each relocation gives you $10k. Interview questions were very open format, I think they were looking more for a personality than actual skills. Rumors spread that the pay started at 43k which is very low for LA. Elaborate process all for 2 15 minute interviews. Gave a good presentation to describe the role, while in Portland. Said they'd reimburse all costs but then gave limits after the fact, so that was kinda unfair. They expect you to be at Toyota for a long time. Don't tell them you plan on starting your own business or anything like that.

Very formal interview. Standard questions and hypothetical situations were used. Make sure to use the "STAR system" (Situation, Task, Action, Result).
People were nice, very driven and process oriented.
