I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SAIC in Jan 2013
Interview
Interview lasted most of the day. Met with several teams of software engineers, and individually with managers. The process starts with a written Java and C++ programming proficiency exam. You are given an hour, and based on your results you continue the interview or exit early. Exam questions are reasonable for someone skilled in the languages. One team were the technical sharks and grilled hard on multithreading and software design. The other teams tested more for fit with the culture.

Single Round Behavioral walking through my resume. Asked a few technical questions regarding concepts listed in the job description. No technical coding round. Overall was an easy and painless experience.
The interview was very "chill" and straightforward and I was pleased with the professionalism. There were about two to three rounds. I would highly recommend to be yourself during the process.
