I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Covidien (New Haven, CT) in Aug 2011
Interview
2 month Interview process with structured behavioral questions. The entire process was long & intense but not tough. It included multiple rounds of interviews with various people. Overall, the interviewers were nice.
no interview needed since I knew the hiring manager and knew the domain. So hired directly without interview process. i maintained relationships with the hiring manager and others. no interview needed since I knew the hiring manager and knew the domain.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Covidien (Carlsbad, CA) in Mar 2011
Interview
The process went very smoothly as expected from a mature company with well defined roles and processes. Three managers conducted the interviews and asked the usual background questions, only one person had a brain teaser type question.
