Interviewed Dec 2010 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took 2 months)
I went to an open recruitment event to one of the branch in central London. The advert was on the recruitment website. I have also sent my application online (that was unsuccessful) but in person I had a chat with a colleague and they called me back few days later. I went back to the actual interview (after compliting millions of paperwork) with the regional recruiter/manager. The interview was ok, the math test was really unprofessional, the role play was quite difficult but not connected to the job...you have to be a good seller, and confident person. After this interview I didn't hear anything for them for 3 weeks. After that they offered me the position. And asked me other papers and certificates. It took 6 weeks from the job offer when I started t working.
Negotiation Details
There was no place to negotiate. On the first time on the selection event I was asked would I consider a bit lower salary... In the advert there was a huge gap between 13K-20K.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, an IQ/Intelligence Test, a Skills Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
The application process does span over a few months but each step was a positive experience for me. First there is a simple application form with a situational judgement test. If successful, the next step is a numerical, verbal and logical reasoning tests. You have plenty of time in which to complete these so as long as you do some practice tests, you won't have a problem.
If successful, there is a telephone interview which lasts for up to an hour and it is quite a tough interview so make sure you prepare well. Know all your examples for the different competencies, and make sure you know a lot about the company and about the industry you will be working in. You'll need to know some current affairs relating to the industry. It is a tough interview but the person on the other end of the line does put you at ease, so just be natural. The same goes with the face to face interview, I felt at ease and I felt like I was having a two way conversation with my interviewer.
You find out in the next couple of days if you have reached the final stage which is the assessment centre. You get plenty of time to prepare for the assessment centre and to book time off to attend, train tickets etc. The best way to prepare for the assessment centre is to go over your interview notes, practise for the numerical re-test and perhaps practice doing group exercises and presentations with your peers.
The assessment centre was probably the best I have attened and I really did enjoy the experience, which is probably why I was offered the job and why I accepted it. In the group exercise, speak up, but don't speak over people; be encouraging to quieter members in the group. Don't speak for the sake of speaking - have something relevant to say that will contribute to your group reaching a good conclusion. For the individual presentation, make sure you make use of the facts presented to you to make a strong argument. There is no right or wrong answer, just make sure you argue your point well and respond confidently and calmly to challenges.
