I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Continental (Guadalajara, Jalisco) in Mar 2009
Interview
They focused on the technical background, but they do not expect for you to know everything. HR support was adequate. They paid for airplane ticket for final interview and paid for re-location. HR was always clear and they suggested other departments which could be more related to your experience / interests. Communication was clear and salary is open for negotiation. I would definitively recommend applying to this company.
