I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Sony in Oct 2011
Interview
Fairly straightforward, but not too penetrating. All the standard questions were asked but nothing to get you off of your standard interview storyline. The interviewers wanted to do a good job but didn't seem to have had any formal training as to how to actually do a good interview. As long as you had a good story to tell about your career history and it was fairly consistent with what you said in your interview, you were OK.

Question 1
Nothing really stood out - most questions were very generic
