J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Draper (Boston, MA) en sept. 2013
Entretien
Transferred from DLF to full-time. Process began with an informal meeting with the division lead. A long while later (nothing happens quickly), a req was opened and I was told to apply to it. Another long while later, an interview was scheduled. Interview consisted of several one-on-one meetings with future colleagues plus a technical presentation on a previous project - in my case, my thesis. All of my one-on-ones were people selling me on the company; no hard questions or anything like that. Technical presentation is very important, though. Be prepared for any possible question even tangentially related to your work.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
The technical presentation (~30 minutes presenting, ~20 for questions, but it can go a lot of different ways) is the technically demanding portion of the interview. One-on-ones will go well if your social skills are solid.

Entretien
Day-long interview that started with me giving a technical presentation to about 12 people and continued with multiple 1-on-1's with members and group leaders in the prospective division. The technical presentation was really just to see how to speak in front of a group since that happens routinely in the position, and how you deal with questions and differing ideas. The 1-on-1's gave a feel for the division, but I would have like to talk with more people in the group I actually hired into
