I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lubrizol (Cleveland, OH) in June 2008
Interview
The process was pretty standard for US companies: a phone interview followed by an on-site which included a presentation and multiple 1:1 interviews. The on-site went for the whole day from 9 to about 5. The last two people were the hiring manager and HR.

The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lubrizol (Paso Robles, CA)
Interview
Online application, called pretty quickly then scheduled an in person interview. Individually with each department manager, all telling me how great it is to work there and how much money the company has. Just simple questions from my resume. Loved it thought it was great. Called to offer me the job a few days later, all was great except they low balled me at $18/hr and the shift would be a graveyard 12 hour shift with no shift differential (no mention of graveyard shift up until this time). I was blown away at how low it was, as this area in California is very expensive and with a bs degree. I countered at $21 and they returned with $18.75. I expected $25/hr. With that being said I had to decline.
