Interviewed Apr 2010 (took 2+ weeks)
Interview in person at the Bank. There is a lot of security getting into the building but the research department is friendly. I had 3 interviews. 2 in the research department and one with HR. The research department asks about your future plans and is resume based. Then they focus a lot of research and to figure out if you have experience with the software they use. HR was an easy interview.

Interviewed Dec 2009 (took 4 weeks)
After an extremely quick phone interview, I was asked to come by for a face-to-face. I started with a quick 20 minute HR interview. They asked the basics about why I applied for this job and why I was leaving my current job. Then I move onto the panel interview. 3:1 One director and two others that seemed to be in less managerial roles. This interview took about 2 hours. The first 1 1/2 hours was the meat of the interview. They wanted to know about my past experience and how it was applicable to this job. The last 30 minutes was 3 questions from a cookie cutter printout of interview questions. For example, one of the questions was, "Site a specific example of a time you feel like you overcame adversity."

Interviewed Apr 2009 in Philadelphia, PA (took 1 week)
I was contacted by phone and invited to interview in person for the position. No information was provided about the names or titles of the interviwers, nor was any information provided when I requsted it. A two section inerview. The first part was a one-on-one H.R. interview lasting about 30 minutes. The second part of the itnerview was a panel intervew. There were four interviewers who only provided their names and would not provide information about their roles. The hiring manager started asking questions before I sat down. He was a socially awkward person who was nor peronable and was very rude throughout the time I was there.
