I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SAIC (Washington, DC) in Aug 2009
Interview
Interview set-up by a well known staffing firm on a quick note. First I met with one of their Assistant Manager at the lobby who help me some formality to enter the building. After I met With 3 member interview panel who one of them was Program manager, one Tech lead & other one I think was sr. Developer(not sure). they start asking about myself than Some more about the prospective job & my background. Later they asked some easy technical questions & some nice scenario based question. It goes very well in very comfertable environment. Once they safisfied (that's what I think lol) the facility director with met with me on lunch. I got offer later on the day & requested to complete the drug test with in a week. after I week I decline the offer bcz of travel % & probability of the permanent employee with them after three months(which I don't want at that time)....! after almost a year I regreat why I decline the this good offer & choose this crappy contract.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell us about your last projects f & how much you are confertable with the winform developement.
Very Good and drawn out and interviews with a number of people which included the direct manager and peers on the contract. Would recommend to anybody that is applying to SAIC.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at SAIC (Kansas City, MO) in Nov 2011
Interview
Must apply online and a referral from an existing employee goes a long way. Even with a referral expect to wait months before hearing back. The interview seems pretty standard, they will have 3 different interviewers speak with you from different departments to get a feel for where you might fit. After that, you will wait a full 2 weeks before you hear back that you got the job, rejections could come faster

Question 1
Pretty standard questions, none of the abstract items that you always hear about from torture interviews. They will ask you what your biggest weakness is and that always seems like a tough question to answer honestly without sounding contrived
