I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at New York Times (New York, NY) in Jul 2011
Interview
Several interviews with technical and non-technical folks. Very thorough. Some of the technical stuff was theoretical, describing patterns and why I like certain technologies and such, and there was also hands-on practical part to it where you have to write some code and debug a running program.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain your experience with the most difficult person you have worked with and how you dealt with it.
