Interviewed Aug 2010 in Denver, CO (took 4 weeks)
The recruiter contacted me twice before scheduling an interview to discuss my qualifications and salary. The recruiter was very professional and friendly. However, the hiring manager demonstrated a lack of respect, patience, and tolerance before, during, and after the interview.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Minneapolis, MN (took a day)
Interview last about 2.5 hours. Three people interviewed me, one is the director, one from technical side, another from business side. Manager asked about your behavior questions, what kind person you are, are you a team player, etc. Technical staff focus on what's your technical skills you have, etc. The business supervisor asked questions about your management skills. They are very nice.

The first interview was via phone. I believe the top 5 to 10 resumes were selected and then phone interviewed. From there 2 were selected for face to face interview. I was required to explain what I saw on engineering drawing of a power plant.
