Interviewed Apr 2012 in Jacksonville, FL (took 2 months)
Web.com is very thorough with their interview process. They want to ensure that you will fit in with the culture and team environment. The company has bought a lot of companies in the last 6 years and going through a lot of change right now. My recommendation to anyone who wants to join this company is to utilize your contacts to get an internal referral. The recruiters value and incent employees to refer candidates. The company has been going in the hiring mode the last 3 months. The company will do a background check and check your references, so make sure you have good ones lined up. The environment over all is very professional and respectful of others. Training is more on the job and figure it out on your own.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Jacksonville, FL (took a day)
I applied online & a recruiter contacted me the next day to schedule an interview within the same week. Two girls interviewed me -- a 30 min. process that consisted of basic questions about experience & skills and then I was asked to do a quick mock sales presentation.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Jacksonville, FL (took 6 weeks)
Initial phone screen with HR than with a CxO. In person interview was set-up and changed 4 times over the course of two-weeks.
On day of interview I arrived 10 minutes early and waited in lobby observing. HR person came to get me 30 minutes late. Said CxO was running pate too and schedule was mixed around to meet with other CxO and a VP. Finally was asked to wait an addition 45 to have 5 minutes with the hiring CxO.
At the end of the interview I was told I would be brought back to meet with another CxO. Three weeks past and I sent an email to HR and was informed they could not get hold of the CxO and then a few days later told an an offer had been extended, but they had not heard back from the candidate. At that time, my gut told me to pull-out.
My perception based on observation of the people walking in, word on street and interviews.
Arrogant executive team not asking the right questions of the right people. More interested in access to cheap debt to fuel acquisitions. Undifferentiated market strategy and perhaps stunting their own potential by offer low wages to a not so talented local labor pool.
Overall impression:
Poor communication
Arrogant exec team
Willing to waste a candidates time and not clearly communicate
"Us & Them" attitude from the 4th floor crew to the rest of the company
Playing in a commodity market with a cost structure of an enterprise software player
Other people money feel to it (look at financials)
Cheap feeling
With their debt ratio and Wall Street expectations, look for layoffs when the downgrades comes, but the Bozo effect will reamin solidly intact. Guaranteed

Interviewed Oct 2009 (took 4+ weeks)
I thought the interview process was a little long for the position and the salary they were offering. I spoke with people from similar team members to VP level.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in Silver Spring, MD (took a day)
Met with the principle, followed by the incumbent (who is retiring), then with the direct reports.
All were pleasant and information but I'm not really sure these guys know what they want.
At the end of the 3 hour interview the CEO indicated I was their first interview for the position and that they'd be back in touch.
I reached out to the recruiter to follow-up a couple of days later and he told me that they were going to keep the position open, looking for a closer match.
