I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Duquesne University (Pittsburgh, PA) in Aug 2012
Interview
The interview process was simple. There was one interview with the person that ran the lab. The interview consisted of her basically explaining how the lab operates and the responsibilities of a lab aid. There were not many questions asked of me. It was pretty much a guaranteed job offer after the interview.

Question 1
Would you be interested in this position knowing the responsibilities?
