I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at TEKsystems (Bellevue, WA) in Jun 2012
Interview
Technical covered basic Teradata concepts and components, backup and recovery practices, performance tuning, capacity planning, and best practices. I was then given situational questions similar to essay questions I would get in school. For example, Describe a time when you were working on a team project and you had to motivate your teammates to accomplish their tasks. What was the situation? What role did you play? What was the outcome?
