Colloquio
Phone screen, 4 in-person interviews. The hire decision seemed to have been made before going onsite.
Most of the interviews were casual, one technical. The technical interview was awkward. It seemed the interviewer was trying to trip me up with some complicated technical trivia (learned later that manager had serious reliability problems with the really complex code).
There was a tour of the engineering facility "on the mountain" and the related manufactring facility.
Got to stand in the main foyer, on the medalion and heard my own breath!

Colloquio
Applied online and was screened by HR first then had a separate phone interview with hiring manager. HR seemed focus on my salary requirements right off the bat. Perhaps I was too senior for the position? We talked for about a half hour and then she recommended things to look over before talking with the hiring manager on a different day.
Hiring manager seemed pleasant yet adversarial. He asked about my most recent employment experience and was less interested when I spoke to anything beyond my current job. He tended to challenge me on some of the responses I gave to what I considered to be open ended questions with no "right" or "wrong" answer. I even stated that I didn't think it was possible to give certain specific answers because every development case he referenced had unique issues so there was no common "cookie cutter" solution.
At the conclusion of the hiring manager phone screen, I felt I had gone from hopeful and enthusiastic to somewhat beaten down. And as is the case these days, I never got any feedback as to where the disconnects were.

Asked lots of questions on front end development experience (UI design, user profiles, use cases). Also about experience with test processes and multi-threaded application development. Some basic tech screening questions like abstract classes versus interfaces. Seemed like most of the other questions I got were heavily opinion based (experience-based) and that the hiring manager was somewhat opinionated and not very welcoming.
