I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Graphic Products in Oct 2015
Interview
You send an email with resume to a specific job posting email address. The HR person contacts you if the development team "might" be interested. Then you come and do a 10-minute written technical test and a 30-minute coding challenge. The HR person takes the results and gets them to dev team. They contact you if interested. I was not contacted. :(
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The written test was pretty basic: what is a class? What is a linked list? When would you use a singleton and what are drawbacks?
The coding example was pretty straight forward. They give you a laptop with no internet access. It has VS and SQL Server on it. You have to create a project that connects to a pre-made database and extract some data and present it based on some logic.
Very laid back. The technical interview was just a couple brief questions and minor whiteboarding to ensure basic OOP knowledge. Very little need to have stressed or practiced coding challenges beforehand.

Question 1
Create a class (ex. "Fruit"), instantiate the class (ex. "Apple"), assign properties, etc.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Graphic Products (Beaverton, OR) in Mar 2016
Interview
\You go into this small room in a dimly lit area and get asked a bunch of questions about development. None really hard. They definitely try to intimidate you in the later stages of the interview. They are definitely more of a button down strict type of place, and a sales driven company. You can see when you walk in that everyone looks either bored or miserable. Nobody talks to each other or smiles much.
