I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Johnson & Johnson (Menlo Park, CA) in Feb 2012
Interview
Interviewed with recruiter, then phone screen with HR and manager. Then in-person interview with panel of peers. Everyone was very nice and approachable. They required a presentation, which was appropriate as this was a marketing/sales role where presentations to customers are common.. Ultimately I declined to continue to the next round due to deciding that the commute was too long and the position required too much travel. Thankfully they were very upfront about their need for someone who would travel at a moment's notice roughly +50% of the time.

Question 1
Had to bring a presentation of your background and skills
Too many rounds of interviews with the interviewers asking the same questions. The recruiter was fine but seemed very overwhelmed and didn't always answer my follow-up questions. Overall, I think I interviewed with roughly 6 people which seemed extensive.

Question 1
Have you worked with cross-functional teams in the past and can you provide me with some examples in a go-to-market approach. How do you ensure senior stakeholders are kept up to date?
The interview process was straight forward. Met virtually with individial appointments with the hiring team members. After each phase, there were gaps of time in between stages. The hiring manger, the assitant and HR were mostly the point of contact.
