Group hiring, you come into the recruiting office sign in, they take your picture for your badge, go to a room and you are given a drug test and that is it.

Interview
Quick and painless, applied and got an email to schedule an appointment. Travled 35 miles to the site and met with a nice interviewer. Given the run down on what to expect with the company, given a drug test and then emailed a contigent offer of employment upon successful drig screening. Waiting on results now
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Amazon (Pittsburgh, PA) in Nov 2014
Interview
Cattle call at a hotel by the airport after a very lengthy, unnecessarily detailed application process that required the usual information as well as college transcripts and GPA to be submitted (even for applicants who had graduated over ten years ago). Offered immediate hire pending results of a background check and drug test which was taken in a hotel conference room. The creepy part of the interview was that over two dozen people were, at one point, swabbing saliva from their mouths for the drug test while sitting inches away from strangers applying for the same position. It was not sanitary and was rather aggressive way to conduct an interview.
