Initial contact after an online application was over email. HR person asked to schedule a phone screening interview as I was a good match for the position.
In about a week a have received a call directly from the hiring manager. We discussed my skills, area of expertise and what I can do for the company.
Interview consisted of a multiple 1:1 sessions with hiring managers and peer interviews. It took at least 2 hours and 6 different people showed up in the meeting room.
Everything was on the professional level. All questions were directly related to the position and included informal skills test and personality assessment.

Interview Details –
There was one phone screen which was brief and surprising as I wasn't expecting a call before an email confirmation about a possible phone interview. I did a decent job apparently as I was called later for an onsite interview.
The onsite interview process was very good. I was interviewed by 2 peers first who gave a lot of importance to my algorithmic skills. I was later interviewed by the manager who was very encouraging during the interview. I thought I did okay. A month later, I was called and told that they would like to hire me.
The work culture seemed very professional and I was told that a lot of stress is laid on taking initiative and learning what is unknown. The team seemed very solid in their fundamentals. I was told that encouragement is given to take up projects of ones liking - which pretty much implies that you are responsible for it from start to finish (covering the basic design to the detailed design, coding, unit test and possibly integration testing) They said a lot of attention is given to follow programming standards. In short they wanted their employees to code right - write code that scales well, can be reused and is object oriented. All that is absolutely true.

Negotiation Details – Negotiations will probably be unsuccessful. A lot of money is made via bonuses which is a very encouraging culture here.

Interview Details – Extremely dissatisfied with the process. Started professionally with a phone interview with HR and then follow up with the hiring manager a few days later. Went very well. Was scheduled for a range of team interviews the following week for 5 hours with 5 employees and managers. Left there feeling very good and satisfied it went well. Sent a thank you that day. One week went by with no email, call or letter. Called to follow up and left message with HR and hiring manager. Another week went by with no contact. Called again and this time got manager who said they would finish process in a few days and advised me I was strong candidate and I had another offer so needed quick resolution. Never heard from them after that via email, phone or letter. Took the other job. Very unprofessional conduct and would not recommend.

Interview Details –
the phone interview was done by the respective manager and director of the department. It was completely based on technical knowledge and they understood the fact that I was a recent grad ( which I really liked). I was confirmed for a 1:1 interview just after the phone interview was done.
the 1:1 interview was taken by 8 people from the same department but at different posts. All of the questions were again directly related to the job post and entirely based on my resume.
Everything on my resume was discussed.It also had a 1 hour break for lunch with the Director. But for some reason I was rejected in the end. No regrets. But overall a good company.
