I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Sarnoff (Princeton, NJ) in Jul 2008
Interview
The process was very professional. To expedite the individual interviews, I was asked to prepare and present a 10 - 15 min presentation covering my background. Questions were pointed, on topic, and well thought out. I suspect I had won everyone over except the hiring manager, who clearly wanted an in-house candidate.
