The first step is over the phone. They ask you about your experience. Your work style and drive for the position. After phone interview you speak to Regional manager and from there we meet in person!
They drill you on what you can bring to the team and why? My perception of the people they are uptight and not that excited about students just keeping a job!

If you are taking the offer but you want more then ask! They will go a level higher to see if they can approve your request.

Interviewed May 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 4 weeks)
I had a short telephone interview with a faculty member before I was invited to an interview on May 31st for a librarian position. The 3 + hour interview consisted of 3 one-on-one interviews, a panel interview, and a tour. I did not meet with any HR reps. While everyone I met with was interesting and polite, getting a response after the interview has been difficult. I was told a decision would be made within the week. When I didn't hear from anyone, I called and found out that they were still in the process of interviewing and it would be another week. That was over 2 weeks ago and I have not heard from anyone since. I have tried emailing and calling, but am being ignored. I feel that after such an intense interview process, not responding to an applicant is very unprofessional.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Anaheim, CA (took a day)
I was interviewed by two people separately. Both individuals were quite unorganized and were not taking any notes or referencing my resume/application. They seemed as if they had already selected a candidate and were doing a courtesy interview. One manager went into great detail about the position and her love for working with students but when I spoke of my same passion and achievements she seemed uninterested. My best advice would be to express your passion and love for student over quantitative and measurable achievements.

Interviewed Dec 2008 (took 3 weeks)
Initial communications with company were scattered and not on 'time' when they said they would get back to me to set up the next round. There were 4-5 rounds.
During the interview, they kept telling me how hard the position was... over and over.
