I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at General Atomics (San Diego, CA) in Oct 2016
Interview
Phone interview with general questions on .NET knowledge and past job experience.
On-site interview that consisted of a meeting with a manager who gave a general overview of the company, what they do, and what they're working toward.
After the meeting with the manager I had a meeting with about 5 developers who watched me solve coding problems. This was for an entry-level position, so they were fairly easy.
I would have seriously considered an offer from this company, they definitely had a good culture and they I felt like I would fit in pretty well there. I didn't have time to wait to see if they were going to make an offer because they took too long to decide and I got an offer from a different company that I liked a little more and that had a shorter commute.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at General Atomics in Aug 2016
Interview
Phone interview with various questions about resume and techincal experience. Lots of questions about operating systems and random ones about bitwise operations. The interview wasn't too bad but they seem to be very adamant on knowing operating systems. Interviewer was nice and described the average day if you were to get the position, as well as any training you would get.

Interview
There was a very brief phone interview which just clarified my resume. Then an on site interview followed. The onsite portion was not well communicated what was going to happen, leaving me blindsided. I met with multiple different people who, apparently, each were interviewing me for a separate job of their own. I was not prepared with a background of their research to be able to ask questions or prepare anything in general.
