I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at American Cancer Society in Jun 2010
Interview
I applied directly online to their website and was emailed approximately 2 weeks later. Via email, the initial person and I scheduled an appointment to do a phone interview/screening. She asked basic questions: why I was interested in ACS, how I feel about cold calling, experience in recruiting clients and volunteers, and why I was leaving current position. The next day, I received a call from the director of the region I would be working in and set up a 1:1 interview/group interview for two days later. At this interview, it seemed a lot more informal and can't remember being asked anything too difficult, did have to fill out another application and release to have background, credit and education check. I mentioned in the interview that I knew I had the skills, just wanted to know if I would "fit" in. We wound up talking about family, hobbies and pets. I definitely feel like I would fit into the culture of the company. Both people who interviewed me were "beautiful" people so that was honestly more intimidating than the questions. This was recently, so I am still awaiting my offer.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at American Cancer Society (Denver, CO)
Interview
The interview was long - it lasted a full hour. The questions were abstract and many of them were situational questions that seemed completely unrelated to the position. Many of the questions were also open-ended, prompting you to give an examples of how you respond to different instances. It was extremely vague and some of the questions were unclear.
