Interviewed Feb 2011 in Austin, TX (took 1 week)
I applied online, then received a call from the recruiter. Once she chatted with me she set up a call between me and the Director. Once the Director "approved" of me, they set up an in office interview where I met with two Directors of Program Management as well as two Creative Directors. Each interview lasted roughly half an hour and was mainly directed at what my background was and how I might be successful in the role I was applying for. Two days later I received a call saying I had the job and could I start the following week.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
I met with the recruiter to talk about what range I was hoping for, and she then went to "the powers that be" to negotiate my rate. She then came back with a number to present me (a few days later) and I had the opportunity to ask for more or accept. Once I accepted, I signed and it was done.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview and a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 3 months)
Interviewed with the corporate recruiter - very conversational. Understood the role and was capable of doing the personality and skill screen. Advanced to C-Level interview which was via skype. An unnerving experience. It kept getting disconnected and the interviewer had an obvious lack of interest. Cold. Not really difficult questions just a sort of 'too-cool-for-shool' persona, no chemistry. Despite this advanced to the next level which was a phoner with the GM of another office. Position is still open and I understand the position has been re-defined. Very difficult to make the connection of the screen process.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in San Francisco, CA (took 2 days)
Great phone screen initially. Full day second round in the studio. Offer by the end of the week. It was a tough interview because frog knows exactly what they are looking for and you need to be confident in your ability and experience to work here. frog is not for everyone. It is the kind of place that requires emotional intelligence, entrepreneurial thinking and the ability to adapt to the environment. The people are great, the work is unlike another and you either want to be a part of it or you don't. In the end they are very selective.

Interviewed Sep 2009 (took 4+ weeks)
The interview went well, only the response/feedback was not clear enough. It is better to be clear than to be vague about the reasons.

Interviewed May 2009 in San Francisco, CA (took 3 days)
A little unorganized around who I was meeting with in the initial 1:1. Moved quickly, the people I met with were bright, sharp, and passionate about their work. Typical interview process, nothing notable in the methods.
Negotiation Details
Wasn't able to negotiate too much, especially around salary.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Seattle, WA (took a day)
Interview with two directors from the company. We just talked about my experience for an hour. Their Web site is so broad that it is difficult to understand what they actually do at the Seattle office. I think that my skill set was too advanced for what they require.

Interviewed Aug 2010 (took 2 weeks)
A recruiter working at frog contacted me out of the blue asking if I would like to come in for an interview. I hadn't applied, so I assume he found my profile on LinkedIn. I said yes (was curious what it was all about). He then asked what time, I gave him a time and then... radio silence. It's been a few weeks now so I can assume he is not going to invite me for an interview. However, my complaint is this:
- my entire profile is on LinkedIn. Why not read it first and *then* decide if you want to contact me? Not contact me first, and then decide later I am not who you want.
- even if you do not find out about my bg 'till later, is it so hard to send a one line email that states "We've decided to go a different way?" No, it is not. It is courteous to the person you have contacted.
Believe me, I don't care about not going on the interview because I have a great job that I am sure pays more. But jeez, please don't waste my time. It makes your company look really bad and unprofessional. I won't be applying here in the future.
