Well they called me and then scheduled a 30 minute phone interview and then after the phone interview, I had a group interview with 3 rounds of 3 person interviews.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Gavilon (Omaha, NE) in Aug 2014
Interview
Met with 5 different interviewers from all areas of potential employment. Some did not show, but process was organized and comfortable. All information, including benefit packages was presented before an offer was on the table. Seemed very well put together and interesting.

Question 1
They asked about basic professional skills, such as 10 key, Excel, and if I had any agriculture background. They asked about fears and goals for starting a new career. Between the 5 different interviewers, nothing felt repetitive or awkward.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gavilon (Omaha, NE) in Dec 2013
Interview
Initial Phone interview, asked what I was looking for, why I applied, etc it took about 30 minutes total. Next round was in person, I met with two Operation managers, a trader, and an HR representative all separately for 30 minutes. The total process was approximately 3 hours. All the questions were job related, but I highly advise to walk in with a good amount of your own questions.
