I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at The Design People (El Segundo, CA) in Aug 2009
Interview
Had an interview w/ the recruiter first (who I believe was a Fraternity brother w/ one of the muckety mucks there), Then had a phone interview. Then had a group interview with 3 people. This all took around 10 days, before I got an offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
