Interviewed May 2012 in Houston, TX (took a day)
I received a phone call from HR who discussed more detail about the position and then asked if I was still interested. I said yes, and then HR prepares you for the manager interview. Invesco uses behavioral interview questions which can be pesky however HR does a wonderful job at preparing you for them. They give you the 7 area the questions are pulled from, give each of the key factors you need to hit when answering and then give you one sample question from each of the 7 areas. Take good notes!! From here you are invited to a hiring session. Here you view a presentation of the company, sit with someone who does the job for which you are applying for about 30 minutes and then you proceed on to the actual inter with 2 managers. HR called me within a matter of hours with an offer.

haphazard process should have been an indicator of the inept culture at the firm. It is comical how they try to act like they are doing thorough due diligence. They are just putting you in front of a lot of people who don't quite know why they are involved in the interview process. no difficult questions, just chit-chat. I guess they are just making sure you are not a complete freak show. They know if you're interviewing here you must not be that ambitious or you are out of work and need a paycheck. If you have half a brain you'll be hired and then you'll regret accepting the offer within the first month here when you realize what a brain-numbing place it really is.

Negotiation Details
very rigid and inflexible. Important - they refuse to put any numbers regarding bonuses in writing. You negotiate that verbally as a "target range". Then, after you get a great performance review at year end they pay you far below the agreed-upon range and just explain that things are tight here. And so it begins, your slow painful realization that you should never have come here.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Houston, TX (took 2 days)
Initial interview was done through phone, after which a candidate is invited to go through a job preview and then a subsequent interview with a recruiter. If still interested, another final interview was set up with two managers. Managers mainly asked about previous work experiences, overall strengths and weaknesses of candidates, how they handle various interactive scenarios, and why they felt they would be a good fit for the position. Fairly standard questions. Work environment seemed very organized and efficient, although a bit rigid and unfriendly, also. Not really a company you can make friends at that easily, most people are pretty business-oriented.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Houston, TX (took 2 weeks)
I was very impressed. I was judging them as much as they were judging me. From the start, their in-house recruiter set the hook in me. Their Recruiter was extremely knowledgeable about the role and the company and was very easy to talk with. They kept in very close contact with me throughout the process. When I first met the hiring manager, they were well prepared with Behavioral-based questions. When I met others, I could tell common themes were being covered, but never got asked the same question twice. The process included the hiring manager, a peers, and one of the main internal clients I support now. It was thorough yet not over-kill; I could see why I met with each and it gave me a better ability to evaluate the opportunity as well.

Negotiation Details
The original offer was strong especially given the benefits and bonus potential. I tried to negotiate a bit hire salary with my recruiter, but they held firm and indicated they always put their best foot forward. I didn't push it since I was pretty happy with the original numbers and had been so impressed with the overall recruiting process.
Other Details
I got the interview through a Recruiter and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, a Skills Test and a Background Check.

The interview part was not too tough. It was 100 behavioral. They wanted to make sure you would fit in well with the company more than interview you for your skills and abilities.

Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 3 weeks)
First, interviewed via a phone interview. Had a second interview with a recruiter about a week later, and a final interview with a HR manager about a week after the second interview. After the final interview, there was a tour of the company and a current employee briefly shows you what you would be doing if you were to obtain the position.

Interviewed Jul 2010 (took 2 days)
I first had an phone interview for an internship with a recruiter in Atlanta, and then met with the managing director of marketing in my city. When I interviewed, the questions focused on what experience did I have in finance and marketing, what my experiences were at school, how well I knew my technology skills (particularly Excel), and also how long I would be available for.

I got to know the company through an M&A transaction. We both saw how each other worked and they asked me to join - no real interview process. Everything went very quickly.

I had a competing offer so negotiation was straight forward. I told them what I had on the table and they topped it.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Houston, TX (took a day)
Building is 11 Greenway Plaza. Went up to the 25th floor which is very nice and was greeted by a very helpful secretary. After waiting for only 5 minutes I met the interviewer who was part of middle management. He asked me a lot of questions pertaining to why I wanted to go into finance, what were my proficiencies that would make me a good candidate for the job, etc.. I was really comfortable during the interview and was told at the end that I was not quite qualified as I was just exiting college. Instead of just kicking me out the door the manager made a phone call to another department getting me an interview. All in all I was very impressed with everything and taking the time to set up another interview for me is something that I believe is unheard of in most corporate level interviews.
