I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Trend Micro Inc.
Interview
Interviewed Q1-2014. Initial interview was a phone screen by the hiring manager and the follow up was an in-person interview at their offices. Position was for a remote location/work from home. After the in-person interview I meet with the local sales representative who I would be working with.
None of the questions were particularly difficult or challenging. I just answered them as I always would.
They seemed a little pressed for time during the in-person.

Question 1
Most difficult situation was the requirement to deliver a 15 minute presentation to the hiring team. They wanted it to be on their product line, so it required some significant research into their products, marketing, positioning and goals.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Trend Micro Inc. (East Orange, NJ) in Sep 2013
