I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at BMC Software (Montreal, QC) in Apr 2013
Interview
First there was some phone interview/screening with someone from HR. They asked me a whole lot of general questions regarding networking, protocols, Linux, etc. I passed and got invited to an interview in premises where two IT experts asked me about some very specific details concerning HTTP methods and how did I think Amazon's datacenter was structured in terms of networking. For a technical support position, I think that was way out of scope. Maybe there were actually looking for a Network Engineer.
The interview was comprised of technical questions and soft skills. Technical questions include network troubleshooting, SQL command examples, operating systems (both Linux and Windows) configuration and troubleshooting, etc. The soft skills including a role play with troubleshooting Control-M workload automation software with a client experiencing a critical production issue.
I applied in-person. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at BMC Software (Houston, TX) in Feb 2018
Interview
I had a 30 minutes phone screen with the project manager. The next step was a 1-hour technical interview with two members of the team and lastly an on-site interview with all members of the team. The whole process from phone screening to a final decision took 6 weeks.

I applied online. I interviewed at BMC Software (Reading, England) in Jun 2017
Interview
Worst interview I have ever been.
The interview was ok in the beginning & later hiring manager was rushing because the room was booked for sales meeting. Hiring manager did not ask a single question about me or my career.
Second thing the HR is very poor on response, after numerous emails, after month & half they came back. Absolutely lost the interest of the company. Complete waste of time.
