I applied through college or university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Lincoln Electric (Cleveland, OH) in Dec 2012
Interview
You go through 2 initial interviews and then you are invited to the facility to get herded like cattle through back to back 30 minute interviews. The people were nice but only a handful of technical questions were asked. They seem to be more interested in people who do what they are told vs what they actually know.
