I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman in Dec 2009
Interview
This was a phone interview with four engineers. It was fairly short. Each took turns asking various questions very quickly. It was a little off putting how they were only interested in technical knowledge. But an interesting interview. There were no difficult questions, simple do you know this, can you do this, etc.
