The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Superior Essex (Atlanta, GA) in Sept 2007
Interview
Not a challenging interview - they wanted to know about experience with Excel, a little background info, and the rest was conversational about the company and any questions I had. I came prepared with questions about the company and recent news items that turned out to be irrelevant to the position, but I'm sure it didn't hurt.
