I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies in Feb 2011
Interview
Talked to a recruiter at the career fair at my school and was emailed a week or so later to schedule a phone interview. On the day of the interview I was called by the interviewer and was asked about what I thought about Palantir's technologies. Then went on to describe the position of Quality Assurance and what it entailed. The interviewer was very polite and we seemed to get along pretty well. The interview didn't seem awkward at all.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You are outside a room. Inside the room there are two light bulbs. One light bulb is on all the time, the other light bulb only turns on when you open the door. How do you determine which light bulb is on all the time?

Interview
I initially had a phone screen with HR to determine whether or not I had the skills that matched the job description. After that I had an interview with a member from the QA team who asked about my background and threw me a problem solving question. He asked me how I would go about testing an elevator.
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies (Palo Alto, CA)
Interview
Talked to a recruiter at a career fair, had two screening phoning calls. Then flew out and did the on site where they do three different interviews all fairly similar to the screening. Nearly every question that was asked was posted here already, so just prepare well and be very interested in the company.
