I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at OutSystems (Linda-a-Velha) in May 2012
Interview
Two technical interviews with (future) fellow software engineers, one about algorithm coding (solving a problem, recognizing sorting algorithms, and optimization) one about architecture design (object-oriented design). Two interviews with management, one with team-leader and the other with the vice-president of engineering. These management interviews were about fit and work methodology.Final interview with CEO which was just a conversation.

Question 1
The questions were broad and leaving space for multiple answers. The challenge was to frame the answer but I didn't find it difficult.
I went through four phases. The first two were related to my experience and fit for the position and the last two were technical challenges (sql, algorithms and system design).
