I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Digi-Key Electronics in Oct 2015
Interview
The interview process seemed great and seemed to go well. However, afterwards I found out that they had talked negatively about me to another interviewee and fellow student. This really angered me and I found it extremely unprofessional.
I was super excited about the interview the night before and didn't sleep until after 7am. My interview was at 9am, so I emailed them that morning asking if we would be able to reschedule for 1pm. They said that would be fine and I got a few hours of sleep and showed up to the interview early. They were a little bit late but this didn't bother me (especially because they were understanding about my need to reschedule). The interview went very well.
Afterwards, I was in class and talking to another student who also interviewed. Turns out, the other student was told about how I rescheduled and how the Digi-Key reps found it weird. They didn't name names but it was descriptive enough that the student knew who it was (we're a fairly small major at my school).

Interview
Screening interview and then interview with the manager. Relaxed and easy, but I don’t think interviews are standardized. Both hr and manager were nice and I had no issues with either.
