I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Nokia (Ulm, Baden-Wurttemberg) in Mar 2011
Interview
Telefoninterview mit dem Recruiter, dann Telefoninterview mit dem Einstellungsmanager. Danach wurde ich zu einem Gespräch vor Ort eingeladen und aufgefordert, einen Online-Persönlichkeitstest zu absolvieren.
Das Interview vor Ort bestand aus vier Teilen (jeweils einstündig):
1. Gespräch mit dem Einstellungsmanager/OPQ
2. Allgemeine SW-Kenntnisse
3. Fachliches Experteninterview
4. Denksportaufgaben
Die Interviewer waren sehr freundlich und hilfreich. Ich stand während des Interviews nicht unter Anspannung.
Rund zehn Tage später erhielt ich die endgültige Entscheidung (ein Angebot in meinem Fall).
Alle Reisekosten (ich kam aus der Ukraine nach Deutschland) wurden von Nokia bezahlt.

Good, the first interview is basically on personal experience, no major coding, just minor and just conversation. Need to write on paper to explain answer. The interviewer listen to my story of my experience. Have good communication.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about youself, and ask me about how to do good design
They asked about oops, sql queries and two problems to solve, each were easy to moderate level and it was based on arrays and strings, overall experience was average for me. It was face to face interview.
Just an assessment and a 10 minutes interview with the line manager explaining the possition and hear your questions. Basic assessment with simple programming questions and a small code to implement. From the interview site there was no technical questions. No HR people on the call
