The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Thomson Reuters (Boston, MA) in Mar 2010
Interview
I was interviewed by the director of one of the many development groups in Boston campus. The technical questions were very easy, the manager seems to care more about personality than technical skill. First day the manager interviewed me, then they called me to be there again next day, when I met the team. I got an offer later.

I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Thomson Reuters (Boston, MA) in Jan 2012
Interview
Got the call through my University site. Had an initial phone screen with the Development Manager. Was pretty basic stuff about the technology and a little bit of resume.Since I was out-of-town candidate, my next round was over skype with the whole team (3 person). The team members were very nice,professional. I got a feel that the whole work environment was very comfortable and exciting. This round was pretty technical about the concepts however there was no code writing. This made me feel more respected because why would I apply if I didnt know how to ! There was a final interview with the development manager of the entire division which was more to see the cultural fit. The interview process was fairly speedy and the delays were on my unavailability. Felt definitely like a good company and team to work for.
