Interviewed Feb 2012 in Milpitas, CA (took 2 days)
The hiring manager/interviewer was very young and naive when doing the role play. He seemed to be new at the job and did not have much experience in the industry. He passed on top reps at the direct competitor who applied and interviewed, to hire individuals with less experience. May have been racially motivated? Come to find out the people he did hire are not selling and are on the way out. After I answered all questions and completed the role-play he said good job and that was it. Did not receive a rejection letter or email. The process seemed quite unprofessional.

Interviewed Mar 2010 (took a day)
Interview was fairly organized. You will get a phone screen with some basic competency questions. Then a one day interview with 5 to 6 interviewers. If you get to meet with the junior staff, then you are in. Be prepared to answer technical questions.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Oakton, VA (took 3 days)
The interview is a joke, they will hire anybody and lie about how great the job is and happy the reps are. Management acts all serious like you are lucky to be interviewed, but the place is a revolving door so they will hire anyone. Just have to pass a drug test and backround check.

Interviewed Jun 2011 (took 5 days)
Telephone interview with an assistant mgr, then one on one with manager. (He seemed OK.) I was told that I qualified for a follow-up w/ a regional mgr, but that has not happened yet. First assistant mgr. called me the next day to set up an interview, forgetting that I had already been seen.
The impression I got is that they are churning through people at a pretty good clip.
Strangest thing though, is that the office looks as if they moved in last week. A few posters taped to the wall and no personality to the place. They've been at the location for years.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Melville, NY (took 3 weeks)
At first there was a brief telephone conversation with a screener who later scheduled a person to person interview with the general sales manager. The interview with the general sales manager lasted about 30 minutes and was really easy. She described the job, reviewed my resume and then made me do a role play at the end. I followed up three days later and was told that I was being scheduled for an upcoming training class. I then took a drug test and my background check and was hired within about three weeks of my initial contact. Training was great but it was all down hill from there.

Interviewed Apr 2010 (took 1+ week)
Interviewers were polite, considerate and very direct, which is a good thing. Most questions were designed to test knowledge of a specific technology or skillset. No unrealistic academic questions that never apply in the real world. There were also a few non-technical logic questions that test your ability to think on your feet. No panel or group interviews were people are coming at you from all angles either.
