Interviewed Feb 2011 in McLean, VA (took 1+ week)
He had a list of questions that he just asked me. At the same time, he wrote down notes and my answers. He had mostly generic questions. Before the interview started, he gave out materials for BB&T like their philosophy and such. Overall he was very friendly and didn't make the atmosphere uncomfortable.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Jacksonville, FL (took 3 weeks)
I first applied to BB&T online. About 2 weeks later they called for an interview. The interview was pretty standard..where do you see yourself in 5 years, tell me about your past experiences, try to sell me a pen...About 4 days later they called me back for a second interview with another manager...same style questions..Again they called me back for a third interview with the VP of the region...With in a week of that interview they called again for a fourth interview and said they would have a decision by day "X" . A few days later a get a generic letter in my email box saying that I was not chosen for the postition. This would be all well and good if I hadn't taken my time driving around the whole town for these interviews only to receive a pre-set email. Very unprofessional in my opinion.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Raleigh, NC (took 2 days)
I was contacted by a recruiter. We had a short interview about my interests and experience. It lasted about a half hour. A day later, I was contacted by the hiring manager. We had another interview, discussing my experience and technical abilities.
I was out of state, so I did not have an onsite interview. I was offered the job on a contract basis. They stated that people usually work 3 months as a contractor and then are hired on full time. This wasn't the case. I had a 3 month contract, and then it would be extended a month, and then an additional 3 months, etc. At the year mark I was given some sort of personality test that indicated I wouldn't be a good fit for the job. I was hired full time.

Negotiation Details
The negotiation process was a little out of the ordinary. I wanted 15 days vacation. They generally only give 10. I was offered 15 days, but the offer letter would only say 10. I asked for the 15 days in writing. I think I would have gotten the 15 days regardless, but I think there was some sort of winky-winky stuff going on. The higher ups don't like to give 15 days, so they will commit to 10 days. The other 5 are up to the manager's discretion.
They did negotiate on salary, but it wasn't anywhere near the national market rate.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, a Personality Test, a Drug Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Feb 2011 (took a day)
The woman who interviewed me was extremely friendly and made me feel comfortable. She had a packet of behavioral questions she asked. She apologized for not being able to look at me, because she had to write down word for word my responses to the questions. About 4 weeks after the interview, I had to take an online personality test which took about an hour. A couple weeks after completing that, I got an e-mail saying I am not considered for the next round of interviews.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took a day)
I responded online over the weekend, which involved answering basic questions about myself and indicating what type of position (part time/full time) and salary I was looking for. I received a call that Monday morning to come in for an interview. At the interview, I found the interviewer - a manager of the department - very personable and well spoken. His description of the position and requirements was very definite and detailed and I feel that we connected well.

Interviewed Feb 2011 (took 2 weeks)
The people were disorganized and didn't know who they're suppose to interview so they were late in interviewing me. The lady didn't even introduce herself and were not friendly. SO i waited and finally they gave me a form to fill out and then finally interviewed me. They asked usual behavioral questions.
