Multiple stage interviews that target logical and debugging skills. Non threatening and kind people that make you want to work there. They were looking for analytical skills as well as communication skills.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Cray in Jan 2019
Interview
Recruiter contacts at first with some basic question about the skillset and then a phone interview with the hiring manager. Finally an onsite interview with more than five rounds. Got the official offer in two weeks after the onsite interview.

I applied in-person. I interviewed at Cray in Jan 2017
Interview
The overall review for this company is about their friendly people and supporting atmosphere, but my interview experience with them was quite the opposite.
Applied through job site and soon contacted by company recruiter. The initial talk with recruiter was great, and the phone interview was skipped, I was scheduled directly for the onsite interview.
It was a team interview but for unknown reason one of the interviewer was not friendly from the very beginning. At one time I praised their office setup and location. He replied with something like this is a terrible office... On one question, that individual's knowledge is clearly limited to old ways of how thing was done in terms of software programming and debugging. When I offered solutions based on newer technologies he was adamant about I was wrong. Regardless, I still nailed 99% of the interview questions.
