Interviewed Feb 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 2 weeks)
I received a email about a week after applying online. The hiring manager asked me to call her if I would like to schedule a phone interview. I call her the next day and set up an interview for that same week. The phone interview consisted of the common interview question such as: why do you think you are a good fit for this company, what other positions have you interviewed for and have you received any offers, what are the top three qualities you seek in a company,...ect.... I never heard back from the company but I knew I wouldn't because It was my first interview and I was unprepared and nervous.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 6 weeks)
Simple phone screen, followed by phone interview that lasted about an hour. Typical interview questions "Tell me about yourself" "Why should we choose you?" etc. Then in-person interviews at the branch which included shadowing two representatives, a one-on-two interview, and a "skills test" at the end. The final round was 3 1/2 hours long.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Schaumburg, IL (took 2 weeks)
The first step of the interview was conducted over the phone, it was not long and only asked several basic questions. Next thing you had to take a personality test online, this would then be followed by another phone interview where they started to get a little more in-depth with their interview questions. The next step of the process, and unfortunately the farthest I made it through the interview, was a panel interview. This however wasn't your basic interview where they fired questions at you, but rather they wanted to see your interest and how well you'd fit in the company through the questions you have prepared for them.
