I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Orbitz Worldwide (Westlake, TX) in Dec 2014
Interview
I had an initial phone screen with the recruiter, followed by a phone interview with the hiring manager, and finally an on-site interview with the hiring manager, director of product strategy, and a few others that took approximately 4.5 hours. It was not at the Orbitz HQ in Chicago, so parts of it were via Skype. This was not a problem at all.

Question 1
They want to know your thought process as far as prioritizing things. What considerations would go into your decision.
The interview itself wasn't so much hard as it was an endurance test, talking to 7 people in 5 hours, not counting personnel. A list of interviewers was provided in advance, which was good for preparation, but for various legitimate reasons, the actual lineup of interviewers only had 3 of the original 7. It threw me off my game plan, but that's my bad. Doing it again, I would not be as focused on researching the individuals in my preparations, knowing that could change by the time of the interview.

Question 1
No real brainteasers. A lot of behavioral-type questions.
