I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AMD (Austin, TX) in Feb 2009
Interview
I was referred to the org through a friend, and applied via their website. Within a period of two weeks, I received a call from the recruitment team. I was given a traditional interview screen consisting on my main strengths, work and product background, current position, and reasons for leaving (only got into my current compensation late in the process).
A few days after that, I was screened by the hiring manager. Following that I came in for a day of interviews (5 -6 people). A week following I received an offer, and had flexibility to negotiate some aspects. Had to pass a background check before it became official. All total, it took about a month or so for the whole process.... again, very traditional.

Interview
From the initial call with the internal recruiter and throughout the meetings with the hiring manager and people from other departments, I got a great sense of community and dedication to the business. No pretense whatsoever. Great people and company.

Question 1
I was asked for my opinion on legislation that impacts the type of work I do. The legislation is polarizing, so people have very different points of view about whether it's good or not.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AMD (Austin, TX) in Nov 2009
Interview
The interview process started out with a couple of telephone interviews. The interviews focused on skills, knowledge, and similar normal interview questions. The people I talked to spent a lot of time talking about the organization they wanted me to join and the challenges they were facing, and they were very upfront.

Question 1
Spent about 15 minutes getting into the specifics of how I would fix a very particular problem they were facing, and they had some ideas already for what they expected for an answer.
