Interviewed Apr 2010 (took 2 days)
Received an initial personality test via emails days after applied online. Once complete, I was contacted to come in for an interview where I met with HR and several department members. The employees I met were very personable and professional. I felt like the broader scope of people I interviewed with allowed me to get a good sense of the position and the overall team environepment. Offered the job the following day.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Naperville, IL (took 4 months)
I applied online and received a call from HR after two weeks. I passed a personality test, the first 1:1 interview and made it to the 2nd round of in-person interviews. I think my lack of experience in equity research and lack of confidence (being out of work for 3 yrs) was evident in the interview and I was not selected. The people are down to earth, welcoming and some are more talkative and likable than others, but seems like a good company to work for.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Naperville, IL (took 3 weeks)
Applied online, then I got a phone interview where the HR rep asked basic questions about your background and why you want the position. Then had to fill out a personality test. 2 weeks later was asked to come in for an interview. Met with an HR rep, then a manager in the department I was applying for and then a supervisor. All asked about experience and qualities I possess. Didnt get past the 1st round. Would have met with 2 employees from the investment team and then a 3rd round to meet with the President.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took a day)
Interviewing with many different people. Just be prepared to explain why you scored the way you did on the personality test. Besides that it was a regular interview. If you buy the book "Sixty Seconds and You're Hired" and read it you should do great at the interview. The first person you interview with will be from HR. This will be the standard interview questions and very basic. The next person you interview with will be from the department you will work in. It will be more of a conversation and getting the know the company and what you would be doing. The final person you will interview with will be the head of the department. This is the most intense one and I guess it just depends and that persons personality.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Naperville, IL (took 2 months)
Was contacted by email and a phone screen followed quickly after. Next step was a personality test online which took about 5 minutes. My first live interview took place about 2 weeks later. Interviewed with HR as well as a few mid-level managers (not at same time). Second round interview was with some of the more senior level employees, again individually. Never made it to third interview.
