I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Riverbed Technology (Reston, VA)
Interview
Fairly lengthy process. It took a few months. Phone interview with manager and 2 peer interviews. Last hurdle was to give an in person technical 10 minute overview of a product of your choice (didn't have to be a Riverbed product) to a group sales people and sales engineers.

I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Riverbed Technology (Reston, VA) in Nov 2012
Interview
The interview and hiring process was very well organized and professional. I was contacted directly by the director, as he knew me. We met twice during the interview process. He was honest with me regarding that others were also being interviewed. I interviewed with three people. The HR hiring rep was really nice and accessible, always answering all of my questions.
