I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at REI Systems (Sterling, VA) in Jan 2013
Interview
6-8 ROUNDS OF INTERVIEW WITH ALL LEVELS OF PEOPLE AFTER HR SCHEDULED IT. They are very fond of calling candidates after 8:00 pm because they seem to be very busy during the day. Do not have ample time to speak to a prospective candidate. They are also very fond of checking their emails during interviews and responding to phone calls.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at REI Systems (Herndon, VA) in Aug 2011
Interview
Very lengthy. It was 4 hours for me without any prior notification. It was clear sign for me that they don't take into account your personal time and value, but I didn't pay attention that time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They ask a lot of questions not related to your experience, but rather showing how you think. At the same time all questions they ask can be easily found in internet. What is their own input then?
