Interviewed Dec 2009 (took a day)
No real shot at job, they just interviewed others to be "fair" as they never gave anyone other than the preselected candidate a chance at the job.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview.

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Boise, ID (took 4 weeks)
online application and a resume were required. One on one interview with the hiring manager. A panel interview with 5 people (HR, hiring manager, two co-workers and a bar raiser). 20 min presentation. About 15 questions in total. Some behavioral and some technical. Average difficulty. Management style is top down. Try to finish each question with a positive ending.

Interviewed Jul 2009 (took 9 months)
It took a long time to get hired. You had to pass a skills test at the local job agency then after months of waiting if you were chosen you had to complete 4 or 6 weeks of classes at a community college at night 2 or 4 nights a week. Then you had group interview. It wasn't too hard. Basic questions. I would say to wear a nice pant suit or blue jeans with a nice top. You want to look nice but not to fancy. Once you get inside and start working the job can be very dirty so don't seem to "prissy".

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Simsboro, LA (took a day)
They asked me about my education. They asked me about my group participation. They asked me about my previous employers. They asked me how my education would relate to my job position at Weyerhaeuser. They gave me a plant tour. It was really, really fun.

Interviewed Nov 2008 in Greenwood Village, CO (took 2 days)
Weyerhaeuser is a very structured company so it was a very strait forward interview process. There were some standard questions from both individuals and in group settings. I would say they were quite comprehensive and behavior based sets of questions.

Negotiation Details
Was able to negotiate a slightly higher salary than offered but apparently the initial offer amount took some lobbying internally as well. Their ranges are pretty tight. They pay a fair wage but it is calculated against regional salary norms and local cost of living estimates and blah, blah, blah. Not a lot of room to recruit superstars.
Other Details
I got the interview through an Employee Referral and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, a Drug Test and a Background Check.

Started with a phone interview from the hiring manager. In a few weeks I was scheduled for a panel interview of 4 people. They asked general questions about experience and training nothing hard. In a few weeks called me with an offer.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in McComb, MS (took 2 weeks)
Spoke with Employee and was forwarded to HR. HR contacted and set up interview. Interviewed with HR, Employee, 2 Management persons. They asked specific job related questions. Only a few "HR" personality questions and questioned me on how I would rate myself on specific job related skills. Overall it was an interview where both parties communicated the needs of the job and if I met them or not. I had little doubt of the outcome of the interview but was not dissapointed because the job skills/needs were out of my skill set.

Interviewed Jul 2008 (took 1 week)
Extraordinarily professional and caring. People were very nice and easy to identify with. Not overbearing at all. Also had a strong influence on safety and environmental stewardship. Big plus in my book. From the initial phone call to the in person meeting and even the presentation, I felt comfortable, accepted and it felt like a natural fit.
