The process took 2 months. I interviewed at General Mills in Jan 2012
Interview
Phone screen by a corp recruiter, followed a week or so later by a phone interview with plant HR, followed by another phone interview with plant management. Finally got a call to come up and interview at the plant in person. Took a personality test (Hogan) and an IQ type test. (wonderlic). Took about 10 days to get the offer. Standard behavioral questions, they are looking to assess key attributes and will probe until they get a complete answer. Plant tour was also part of the morning. Four 1:1 interviews, assessment, and a plant tour took around 5 hours.

Initial communication was through a recruiter who had me fill out a form that had ten questions such as why would you want to move to a rural area, why this industry, etc. It also included several behavioral type questions about actual work situations. Then I had a phone interview with HR and a person who would be my peer if hired. Then two on-line assessments. Then I was called to interview in the plant. It was all day long and started with an IQ type test on-line. Then it was a plant tour followed by four interviews with different people from the plant manager and staff on down to my potential peers.
