I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Merck (Durham, NC) in Aug 2011
Interview
After you submit your resume they send you an email with details for an online assessment. It is a personality test with questions like, "Do you run yellow lights?". If you pass the online assessment they send you an email for an on site assessment which is also computer based. This takes about 3 hours to complete with problem solving questions, IQ questions, mathmatical questions, and judgement questions. If you pass the on site assessment they have you come back for a panel interview where you interview with multiple panels for about 3 more hours. If you pass the on site interviews, you will recieve a phone call and have a phone interview. If you pass all of that they email you the job offer and you have to start the drug screen process, back gorund check, and education check.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Merck (Durham, NC)
Interview
The interview involved situation based questions mostly with a senior technician and manager. They were hiring a lot of BPTs at the time so the interview was not as in-dept. I applied online, got a email to complete a "personality" test, I was then asked to come onsite for a computer, skill, based test. This was then followed by an in-person interview. A phone interview took place following the in-person interview.
