Interviewed Sep 2011 in Orlando, FL (took a day)
I guess I'm the only one who got the rudest HR member out of the bunch. She was not nice... she did not smile... she was condescending the entire time and then told me I did not have enough experience to be a Line Cook (even though I had plenty of experience). she told me I would be going for one job, and when I had my second interview I was completely lost... because it was for a position completely unrelated! Luckily, I was quick enough to save myself a job and embarrassment. I had just moved to the area, so it's not as though she needed a reason to hate me.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Orlando, FL (took a day)
I met with the interviewer and he asked me all of the basic questions. Why is Universal the place for me? What would I bring to the UO team? Because I was applying to work at the newly opened Wizarding World of Harry Potter I actually had to take a quiz on the series based on my knowledge level of 0-5. I said I was a 4 and I answered all of the questions correctly! I was offered a job on the spot.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Orlando, FL (took 2 days)
After submitting the application, I was contacted within 3 days by the HR manager and given a phone interview. The phone interview was actually more structured than the panel interview. The standard questions were asked in both the phone interview and the panel interview, which were conducted by different people. The people are extremely nice there, and very accommodating. The panel interview was conducted by four current ride operations managers for different areas of the park. The administrative office seemed funny, and I could hear them joking around while waiting. Overall a good experience, now just waiting on the phone call :)

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Orlando, FL (took 1 week)
First off I had a 1:1 interview with a HR coordinator who asked me the basics questions you would expect for a customer service based job. She was up front about the job challenges - getting yelled at frequently, essentially - which I appreciated. The second interview was a panel interview with 5 other people - they basically want to check you are comfortable speaking in front of others. Similar questions to round 1, and some scenarios are thrown at you - they want to check your judgement. Overall a very pleasant experience and I knew I would enjoy working for the company (I was right) - I found the whole thing easy, but as it's my first job in the US and I took a 60% pay cut, I really should have done...
