Interviewed Apr 2009 (took 6+ weeks)
A lot of waiting. You get "scored" based on some criteria that you have no knowledge of. If you score high enough, you get called for a brief telephone interview and then maybe an in person interview.
Negotiation Details
You do not have a lot of room. You are placed into a grade and a step level.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, a Drug Test and a Background Check.
