I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Xerox (Wilsonville, OR) in Aug 2010
Interview
The Xerox interview process is best described as a marathon. They will ask you questions ranging from soft skills (assessing how you will interact with others) to full on engineering problems. Interviews are one on one and last about 30-60 minutes each. Each interviewer has an area that they are assessing. There was a nice dinner after the interviews. All interactions are professional and fairly congenial. HR was responsive to getting me to and from the interview as well as following up with an offer after the interviews were done.

The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Xerox (Wilsonville, OR) in Dec 2011
Interview
The phone interview was fun and easy. It was a one on one interview, with the standard initial interview questions and a few basic technical questions. Really simple engineering concept questions.
They invited me for an interview day that consisted of 5 one on one interviews each an hour long, plus a lunch break. The one on ones were very challenging, almost completely technical questions except for the last one. All of the interviewers were friendly and helpfull, but definitely demanding. It helped that I prepared ahead of time!

I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Xerox (Rochester, NY) in Aug 2011
Interview
Got a couple of email from HR, no phone interview. They flew me in for 2 1-hr interviews with different teams. First interview was with 2 engineering managers mostly asking about behavioral questions. Second interview was mostly the guy talking about what he works on, hardly asked a question.
