I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (El Segundo, CA) in Nov 2009
Interview
Did not do a phone interview. Recruiter called me and told me to prepare for a face-2-face interview with the hiring manager. Only net him for an hour in a private room in visitor center. He shared a lot about the project. He told me and the recruiter that it had been an excellent interview and he would let me know in three weeks. He never made a decision.
Interview process at Northrup Grumman was standard and in-line with aerospace and defense companies. Interviewers were friendly and responsive throughout the process. The Northrup Grumman process was transparent, clear, and appreciated.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you had conflicting priorities among steak holders and how did you address it.
I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (London, England)
Interview
Competence based interview, panel of two covering mixture of behavioural and technical competency based questions. Felt like a fair assessment, with a good amount of time allocated for the interview.
Interviewed over the phone. Interviewed claimed to be having a bad day and seemed disinterested or tired during the interview. This definitely effected the interview process and job placement. The other interviewer was much more attentive and communicative.
