I applied through university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Stryker (Kalamazoo, MI) in Mar 2011
Interview
The interview process started as an on campus interview. I was invited to the second round at headquarters. Before going to headquarters, I needed to take a Gallup phone interview. At headquarters, I delivered a 15 minute presentation, then interviewed with 7 different people in two different divisions. They provided lunch and a hotel for me.
3-4 stages in the interview process. Primarily behavioral questions mixed in with a few technical questions -- looking for character alignment with company goals and mission, and passion for medical technology.

I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Stryker (Portage, MI)
Interview
Intense and long. I interviewed with about 8 people all in one day. Most one on one. Treat everyone with respect and basically be nice to each person you interact with. This includes other applicants and when you get pressed, keep your cool. Not sure if that was a test, but I passed. Be sure to have great questions for them.
