Interviewed Mar 2012 (took 4+ weeks)
Submitted an application through my university website. Completed an online assessment, and was offered a final interview 3 days later. Final interview consisted of 2 case interviews and 1 behavioral. I was the only person being interviewed who received a final interview without an on-campus one.
Case interviews were standard, but required knowledge about credit cards.
Behavioral was fairly straightforward, but still difficult.

Interviewed Feb 2011 (took 2 weeks)
Applied through my college career center (resume drop). Got initial interview. Initial interview question was about the Subway 5 dollar footlong promotion. There was not time for behavioral questions in the initial interview. Passed that, then got an IQ test and a math/verbal assessment to complete. Then got invited to a final round interview in Virginia. Representatives and interviewers were incredibly nice.

First Round (1 Case Question, at my campus):
