I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tableau Software (Kirkland, WA) in Nov 2012
Interview
Applied through the website, sent an interview video online which I never did, recruiter emailed and stated that they received my video submission (which I never did), spoke witht the recruiter, then spoke with manager who told me to ask her questions for about 30 minutes, and came in for the interview with 2 employees and hiring manager.

I applied through other source. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Tableau Software (Austin, TX)
Interview
11 action packed interviews, phone, 1:1 and panel. A demo of the software by me to show that I had studied and could truly sell. No easy task, but if you accomplish it, it means you have what it takes...all is left once hired is your professional endurance.
