I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Illumina (San Diego, CA) in Feb 2013
Interview
It was initiated by networking with former friends and executives from previous companies.
First interview was as an informal lunch. Then I was introduced to the hiring manager and went for a one on one interview. I was asked questions about my skills and experiences and provided information about the position's responsibilities.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Illumina (San Diego, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
Long and drawn out over 4 hours. Consisted of sitting in a conference room, with one person calling in on telephone (this was not told to me prior to actually answering the phone) and each interviewer was given a 30 minute time slot. There was not enough time to actually speak with the direct hiring manager and too many other managers/directors who you have no day to day contact with.
