I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Boeing (Saint Louis, MO) in Mar 2014
Interview
I applied to the position online through the Boeing site. I was contacted a few days later, and asked to fill out additional online paper work. Roughly a week later, I was contacted by HR asking to set up an interview and provide an unofficial transcript. The interview was over the phone a few weeks later, two managers at the St. Louis department. The interview was similar to all Boeing interviews. They ask you 5 to 7 Structured interview questions, expecting answers that provide the situation, task, action and results (STAR).
Typically, I find Boeing interviews to be somewhat cold and rigid, as their interview process is extremely structured and not very personal. However, the two people I spoke with were much more pleasant and seemed to be more relaxed and at easy with the process.
They asked me several questions related to my school work and group project experiences.

Question 1
Not really any difficult or unexpected questions. Coming out of college, I had a relatively tough time talking about testing and working on big projects.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Boeing (Fairfax, VA) in Nov 2013
Interview
I got an initial on-campus interview in late September 2013. This interview was a behavioral interview, and it was 3 on 1. It was the typical Boeing structured interview. I did not get a letter of intent from this interview. However, they kept my resume in the system, and I was contacted about 3 weeks later by another Boeing recruiter. I set up phone interviews with 2 different hiring managers for Argon ST, a Boeing subsidiary in Fairfax, VA. These interviews were structured interviews as well.
About 3 weeks after these phone interviews, I was invited to go on-site in Fairfax for a group interview and office tour. The first hour of this process was in a meeting room with 5 or 6 managers and engineers. It was very informal, with them describing what they worked on, asking me 2 coding questions, and then giving me the chance to ask questions. After that, I got an office tour for about a half hour. I really liked their office - it seemed most people had individual or 2-person offices, but there was also an agile room. In addition, the work hours offered were flexible, and the company would pay for grad school.
I ended up getting an offer the next week, and it was a very competitive offer with great benefits. I had another job offer I preferred, but if I decide to move back to the DC area, I would definitely try and apply again to Boeing.
