Me postulé en persona. El proceso tomó 2 días. Acudí a una entrevista en Stanford University (Stanford, CA) en may 2012
Entrevista
My future supervisor invited me for a two-day visit, flew me from New York City and got me two nights at a nice hotel. On campus, I gave a seminar in front of a somewhat large audience. I got to talk to some graduate students, some professor working in related fields, and some post-docs. A really pleasant experience overall. I was aware that I was the only candidate matching the profile, because the job had not been filled for two years and my future advisor told me so. He also knew that I had other options, so he had to work to convice me to come.

I did not get any questions really, it was more of a long ongoing discussion.
I was invited by my employer to give a talk in person, visit the facilities of our research center and discuss the projects during a 2-day stay. So I flied from Europe to the US and back within a week.

they are very organized to have a phone interview with interdiscipline groups. They will introduce their institute and tell me who are online roughly. Then each person will talk about what they are doing. Then you will introduce for yourself after their introduction. Total is one hour and 15 mins left for you to ask them questions.
