I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Gensler (San Francisco, CA) in July 2015
Interview
The interview process lasted on and off for 2-3 months; 4 long interviews, 2 of the interviews was with 2 project managers and 2 more interviews with principles. All the interviews felt more like a conversation than an interview. Really nice people.

The interview with HR is friendly. They gave a lot of information about the office. It is a bit slow to get an interview scheduled with them since they have a lot of candidates.
