I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kelly in Jun 2007
Interview
Kelly Services called me after seeing my resume on a career site for a position with Microsoft as a contract employee. After a phone screenings with Kelly Services I was passed along 3 different job descriptions and asked for my preference. Later I had phone interviews with 2 hiring managers. Then I went to MSFT campus for 2, 1:1 interviews (consecutive, with different managers). I was given a response within 48 hours.

Question 1
How would you go about dealing with a co-worker who was not being responsive to your requests?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Kelly (Troy, MI) in Jan 2015
Interview
Interview was very informal. Interviewed with manager and supervisor of department. They just asked me to go over my resume verbally. Then asked me shy I would be a good fit for the position and with Kelly Services. Asked me what my greatest weakness was. Then I was offered the position the next day by the human resources manager.
The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Kelly (Skillman, NJ) in Jul 2009
Interview
Did a phone interview with the temp agency. A week or so later I was called to an in person interview on the Skillman campus. Arrived at Skillman, interviewed with my direct report 1:1 for about an hour which was a pretty positive experience, discussed my background and skills and how well I'd fit the position.
After that I interviewed with the manager at the time for about 30mins 1:1 which was pretty similar. Not a very tense or tough interview, pretty relaxed. I don't think they were expecting much since I am only a temp. About 2weeks after I interviewed I got a call back extending an offer to me which I accepted. Note that I only got the offer because their lead candidate failed a background check.
