I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (Pasadena, CA) in Apr 2012
Interview
Lots of technical questions about my field of study, no weird questions that would throw you off. They mainly wanted to know I was willing to work study and gel with the research team. Don't stress over being very formal JPL is a very relaxed environment almost like a college campus.

Question 1
Tell us about your past research experience and what triumphs you've had.

Interview
Applied through my school's summer research opportunities; found a posting on a website and submitted an email to the person in charge of the project I was interested in. Received a call and asked me mostly about my previous experiences related to sensing/programming and 2 months later called back and told me I got the job.

Interview
Single phone interview that lasted about 20 minutes and included exactly one question. It was a conference call with two people on the other side and they introduced themselves and advertised the project a little bit then asked me a simple screening question.
