I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at SAIC (Eglin AFB, FL) in Mar 2011
Interview
I received a phone call from who would become my direct supervisor. Then I came in for a single interview with the same supervisor and someone on conference call who was his counterpart in another city, but who works closely with this team. The interview lasted about an hour, where the supervisor explained the job and asked me some questions about my experience. The person on the phone was more technically minded and asked me some technical questions.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at SAIC (San Diego, CA)
Interview
Initially contacted by HR to set up in person interview. Met with supervisor of the project, VP of division and an engineer who was in my field. The interview wasn't very technical since it was for an internship, but the common behavioral questions were asked. Everyone was very professional and the process went by smoothly. Was contacted about a week later notifying me that I was selected.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SAIC in Jan 2013
Interview
Interview lasted most of the day. Met with several teams of software engineers, and individually with managers. The process starts with a written Java and C++ programming proficiency exam. You are given an hour, and based on your results you continue the interview or exit early. Exam questions are reasonable for someone skilled in the languages. One team were the technical sharks and grilled hard on multithreading and software design. The other teams tested more for fit with the culture.
