Interviewed May 2012 (took 2 weeks)
Got a call from a recruiter who found my resume on Monster.
Then, the one on one interview was set up with a manager.
Also, had to apply online so I'm in the system. The online application consists of assessment test as well.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Milwaukee, WI (took 1+ week)
In interviewing with Yellowbook I had two in-person interviews with management, a phone interview, and a ride-along day with another rep (to observe). Overall it was a good process, just a little long.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Birmingham, AL (took 5 days)
Basically they asked about who I was and went over my job history. They did not take time for any in depth questions. The second woman I interviewed with, even though I had given the first man my resume the day before did not have my resume or any clue about my job history. I have never felt uncomfortable in an interview but she managed to do that.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 2 months)
You would like to think that in our day/time with the omnipresence of social media and a culture that revolves around the internet that the idea of professionalism would be held in a higher regard than it currently does. Yellowbook was shockingly unprofessional during my interview.
I had a screening with a sales rep/recruiter and after a 45 minute discussion I was given the next stages in the process and told I would hear back within two weeks...that was one month and a half ago and I still have yet to hear back even after contacting the recruiter I spoke with! At the very least give a candidate the professional courtesy of either updating them in the process or let them know it is simply not a fit - not too much to ask.
As a job seeker I would have serious reservations about moving forward with this company. Unfortunately there are companies out there that still operate this way and I will definitely spread the word about this company and specifically how poor my experience was.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in King of Prussia, PA (took a day)
I was greeted with a handshake and it was downhill from there. I was immediately take to a conference room and handed a notepad & pen. I was told to answer a rather difficult TreeMap related programming excercise as the interviewer waited for me to finish. I will admit I had done very little preparation for the interview but I figured I wouldn't be asked anything too difficult. I was wrong. After trying my best with the exam I was then interviewed by someone from the DBA group. After feeling completely beaten up with the programming exercise, the DBA continued to hit me with questions and I stumbled over a few. After a few insulting remarks lofted my way, I decided I wanted to get out of there and wouldn't cooperate with his questions. If I ever meet this individual again I will kick his ___. Completely out of line and unprofessional. I met 2 other individuals and they appeared to be nice. I think they could sense I really didn't want to stick around and they took it easy on me. This probably ranks up there as one of my worst interviews of all time and although the lack of preparation was my fault, I really did not like the insults and attitude I received. I was happy to leave and was no longer interested in the position.

Interviewed Jul 2011 (took 2 weeks)
Interview process consists of oneself and two managers from the hiring department. A general assessment is given regarding knowledge of systems as well as brief overview of the type of position. It then escalates with "What Would You Do" situations. Usually ends two to thee weeks later when someone finally contacts you.
