Interviewed Jul 2009 in Princeton, IL (took a day)
My background included excellent academic credentials for the position, but my experience was not in banking or bank examining, it was in another industry, was which accurately set forth in my resume. When I arrived at the interview, however, it was clear that the panel thought my experience was not suited for the position. While I understand the mismatch, all was set forth and known before the interview. If they thought the experience issue was insurmountable, I don't know why they invited me to interview at all. The interview was a complete wast of time. I never received any response or acknowledgement of any kind. I thought the matter was handled in a very unprofessional manner.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Group/Panel Interview.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Washington, DC (took a day)
A littel disorganized at first as far as the intern program is concerned, but once you are in the door it is a pretty fast intregation into the system. The interview is basic and as long as you know what you are talking about, you wil be fine.

Candidates are flown to Washington, D.C. to learn more about the FDIC. You are offered a nice dinner the night before the interview process. The interview process involves three parts: a skills test; a panel interview; and an analysis and presentation made before a panel.
