Couple of quick and easy phone interviews. Followed by one onsite interview that lasted the entire day with 9 different people. 8 hours is a LONG time to interview. Tough to stay focused all the way to the end with just bathroom breaks and a half hour lunch. Most of the interviews were relaxed, but some where extremely intense. It all depended on the person doing the interviewing.

The whole interview experience was very intimidating, I guess it is because of the person who interviewed me. I had two phone interviews and an on-site, the first call was totally unannounced. I was in a noisy classroom and couldn't really communicated my ideas clearly to the interviewer. The second call was scheduled two days later with another person and that actually went well. The first interviewer contacted me personally, off the record, to tell me I have been selected for on-site and that HR would contact me later and that he had a strong feeling that I would do well. At first I thought he was impressed by my interviews and really wanted me on board for his team but once the calls became regular (like everyday before the on-site) I became too skeptical. At one point, I was kinda scared to go on-site. On-site, the scenario completely changed. I was instructed to be at the office at 12.30 pm, but they made me wait till 1pm until HR phoned in. Later, the first interviewer walked with a super stern look on his face, didn't even make small talk, straight away started throwing questions at me. The questions were basic and pretty easy but the conversation was more like a 21 questions game than an interview. I could literally cut the tension in the air but I did the best I could to keep myself calm. As the interview progressed, I had a couple of other people walk in and be nice to me. I felt I performed better to them. At the end of the day, I knew this place wasn't right for me.
