Interviewed May 2011 in Washington, DC (took a day)
Asked some behavior questions and let me express my thinking of their current project.
Asked me what date I can start to work. But they need someone to start pretty quick and I can't finish my current project. That's the reason I didn't get in.
The interview was easy. And the people were friendly. Must be nice to work with if there was no time conflict.

Interviewed May 2009 in Washington, DC (took a day)
I only had a phone interview. It was a cold call; I thought I was returning a call to set up an actual meeting, but ended up having an in-depth interview over the phone. Questions were pretty standard - asked me about my background, different experiences listed on my resume and why I wanted this position. Also, how my particular skills would be an asset for the job.
