I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Dell Technologies (Austin, TX) in Jun 2009
Interview
The HR coordinated my interview time and place and gave me sufficient notice about it. I did not know the name of my interviewing manager about 2 hours before the interview. Face to face interview with 1-hiring manager, who was very pleasant, to the point and seemed to be very practical about what he wanted to know and showed no extra courtesy. He talked little about the company, but gave a nice introduction of what he did and what he was looking for.
Post interview follow-up from the HR and my hiring manager was very prompt too.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
They asked generic Questions about why Dell, why the particular job and questions about how I thought my profile fit the job required
They also asked some questions around - "tell me about how I faced a disagreement with any senior manager in my previous role and how I dealt with it".
They also asked a couple of questions around my knowledge of the Dell product line-up for consumers and small businesses and asked about creative ideas around solutions based offerings to small and medium business type customers based on the product port-folio of the company
It was great, I really enjoyed interviewing for them and getting to know about their company. The process had multiple rounds, but everything was in person and it felt like they truly cared about the people who would be joining their company.

average - but they took really long to get back, which was disappointing as a lot of time and effort went into the interview. but I guess this is the average interview experience nowadays
