Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 1 week)
Applied on my school's career site and heard back within 2 days from a financial advisor. Scheduled an appointment for a week later. The interview was really fast because I think he just screened for GPA. Asked a few questions about my resume and what I knew about wealth management. After that, only a few behavioral questions but nothing hard at all.

Interviewed May 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 1 week)
I was selected by one of the vice president to meet at his office at 9 AM. Most questions he asked are pretty easy. Like how much I know about their business, how many hours I can work for them per week and my past work experience. He likes the way I value clients. I told him most clients don't know what they need, but what we can do is to help them to find what they need, then we can win those clients.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Toms River, NJ (took a day)
I went in to the office to speak to the branch manager. He was very friendly and talked to me about my life and my past. Than i talked with a financial advisor who was in charge of the intern program. He talked about the same things plus career interests and why i wanna work for Merrill. It went very smooth because as long as your somewhat competent they could use an extra intern to do the ground work for them.

Interviewed Nov 2010 (took a day)
This was a very basic interview. I interviewed with 3 different financial advisors, and I probably spent 30 minutes with each one. Tons of basic questions like, "What are your future goals?", "Why this internship?" etc. They also based many of their questions on what was written on my resume. Overall, it was a great interview experience and it really felt like I connected with all 3 of them.
After finishing the interviews, the manger told me that they would contact me at the end of the day with their decision. It actually ended up being much shorter than that; I was contacted within 30 minutes of the interview with an internship offer.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in New York, NY (took 2 days)
Very professional and fast with their interview process. Just one interview with the manager I would be working with. Interviewer was very nice and understood that as a student I wasn't full of interview experience. Helped me through it so I would be comfortable and show my best. Asked me to describe myself as well as times I had been a leader.
