Nokia interview questions

I sent my resume directly to someone I knew at Nokia. She forwarded it to the hiring manager or somehow got it in the system. It took about two weeks to hear anything. Eventually an HR person emailed me to arrange a phone screen. A couple of days later, I had a short phone screen with the hiring manager. He provided me an overview of what they were looking for - which was somewhat different from the job description I saw on the site. A few days later I was contacted by HR to schedule an in-person interview. That would be about another week or so later. I met with four people for 30 minutes each. Before the interview I had to provide information about my background on HireRight.com. Nokia must use them for their background data collection. The interviewers were all team members and would be my peers in the position. They all gave me an opportunity to learn about the team and the position. They asked a lot of questions, but didn't really get too technical on me. It seemed like they were making sure I was a cultural fit before a technical fit. Everything stayed on schedule. They told me to expect to hear back from them within a couple of weeks. After about a week I found out that they were going to pass on me.

I submitted a resume to Nokia's online career web site. About 3 weeks after I submitted my resume, an HR person emailed me and said they were interested and asked me to reply with responses to a set of questions in email (stuff like why are you interested in working at Nokia, what skills do you have, etc). Two weeks after I submitted that e-mail back to HR, someone who would be my peer emailed me to set up a phone interview. I had the phone interview which took about 40 minutes and I was just asked to go through and explain the different parts of my resume. It took about a month after that to get the approvals for me to fly down to their office for 1:1 interviews. I'll have additional updates to supply after that happens.
